As part of this initiative, the sub-hub fosters collaboration, knowledge exchange, and skill-building among researchers within Garissa University. Through a five-module digital learning program, researchers enhance their ability to utilize open research tools effectively. The sub-hub also facilitates peer discussions on regional challenges, encouraging innovative solutions through transparent research practices. Additionally, local training programs and open science projects, supported by small grants, help bridge the gap between theory and practice. By integrating open research methodologies, Garissa University strengthens its role as a center for inclusive and accessible knowledge, empowering young scholars to engage in impactful, collaborative research.
