4 | GeoJSON | Lilongwe | Understanding soil geochemistry is essential for supporting policies in agriculture, such as advice on liming and nutrient management, and public health, such as identifying regions at risk of micro-nutrient deficiencies and toxicities. At present, the capture and integration of soil geochemical data across multiple scales has not been achieved in sub-Saharan Africa due to gaps in research capacity. | https://royalsociety.org/grants-schemes-awards/grants/dfid-broadley-watts/ | Professor Martin Broadley, Professor Paul Mapfumo, Dr Patson Nalivata, Dr Godfrey Sakala, Dr Michael Watts | Malawi | Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources | Royal Society - DFID Africa Capacity Building Initiative | 5 | GeoJSON | ||||

8 | GeoJSON | Akoka Rd | Yaba | Lagos | Variations in cloud cover, climate and solar irradiation influence the performance of solar power systems. The design for components that employ phase-change heat transfer, critical to solar power generation systems, needs to take this into account. | https://royalsociety.org/grants-schemes-awards/grants/dfid-markides/ | Dr Mohammad Elahee, Professor Christos Markides, Professor Josua Meyer, Dr Olabode Olakoyejo | Nigeria | University of Lagos | Royal Society - DFID Africa Capacity Building Initiative | 5 | GeoJSON | ||
9 | GeoJSON | Abeokuta | In some areas of Africa which are dominated by savannah, one can sometimes find 'forest islands'. Usually surrounding local villages, such islands do not reflect earlier ‘natural’ vegetation types. Rather, they seem to have arisen through human activity such as natural fertiliser inputs (including household waste and animal faecal matter) and tillage practices by the local villagers. | https://royalsociety.org/grants-schemes-awards/grants/dfid-lloyd/ | Dr Jamiu Azeez, Dr Halidou Compaore, Professor Jonathan Lloyd, Dr Vincent Logah | Nigeria | Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta | Royal Society - DFID Africa Capacity Building Initiative | 5 | GeoJSON | ||||
13 | GeoJSON | Ave des Premiers Jeux Africains | Brazzaville | Africa has a chronic shortage of clean renewable energy. Many areas are not connected to the grid. Renewable energy technologies have the potential for local power generation, but in their current state they do not provide a steady stream of energy and methods of energy storage are too expensive. | https://royalsociety.org/grants-schemes-awards/grants/dfid-lovett/ | Mrs Mary Suzan Abbo, Professor Jon Lovett, Professor Bernard M'Passi-Mabiala, Dr Consalva Msigwa, Dr Andrew Ross | Republic of Congo | Université Marien Ngouabi | Royal Society - DFID Africa Capacity Building Initiative | 5 | GeoJSON | |||
2 | GeoJSON | Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital | Blantyre | 12.4 million pregnant women are exposed to malaria in Africa each year leading to 900,000 low birth weight deliveries and a high risk of neonatal death. Dr Okell and her team at Imperial College London are developing state of the art mathematical models to explore ways in which a new drug could be used to protect pregnant women against malaria and safeguard the drug against resistance. | https://royalsociety.org/grants-schemes-awards/grants/gcrf/lucy-okell/ | Dr Lucy Okell | Malawi | Malawi-Liverpool-Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Programme | Challenge Grants | 0 | GeoJSON | |||
