Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM)
Cotonou, Benin
The Opportunity
The 7th Africa Higher Education Week and RUFORUM Triennial Conference occurred during the post COVID-19 pandemic. Hence the need to promote the event online to boost participation globally engaging with various key players in media. As there were several sessions both online and onsite, coordination of the communication and advocacy activities was a priority. There was need to design and format communication content for the conference inform of reflective Thought Pieces and Conference News Digests.
Our Solution
To increase visibility and engagement of the event, we engaged embarked on training social media reporters in Benin to amplify key messages from the Conference, worked with both International and Local press and media to ensure a wider coverage of the event at national and continental level. This resulted into global reach of 15Milion people online, production of eighteen (18) communication products and over seventeen (17) news articles published online.

The Opportunity
As the University of Juba turned 45 years 2020. It became critical to document and demonstrate its relevancy in teaching, research, innovation, and service to community through revamping its website which serves as the face of the university and focal communication channel; rebranding and creating a consistent image throughout its marketing and communication products and strategic communication for its work to be more visible.
Our Solution
Increase visibility, trust and transparency through creating a university brand identity, creating communication and marketing materials and website review. We designed Information, Educational and Communication (IEC) Materials such as pullups, posters, prospectus and website review / recommendation.

Uganda Christain University (UCU)

The Opportunity
PEAPARD is the Platform for African European Partnership on Agricultural Research for Development and supports research collaboration between a wide range of national and regional organizations in Africa and Europe. Through Afri-Sol, a network of scientists and other stakeholders with interest in Solanaceae species in Africa, we were consulted to document, showcase and increase visibility of the impact of this project upon its completion. However, with AFRISOL having issues with website navigation, access to publications online, communication and promotional materials for exhibition purposes, they needed a simple and effective way to communicate the value of the investing in Indigenous Vegetables both at national and global level.
Our Solution
With the understanding that simplicity is important for this project, we embacked on Refreshing thie Logo, revamping the website to improve navigation, increase access to publications, ensure it is mobile friendly as well as social friendly. We designed Information, Educational and Communication (IEC) Materials such as pullups, posters, press releases, impact booklet. They needed to launch the various products during the end of project event and we supported the event through social media campaign as well as report writing and editing.

The Opportunity
The Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM), is a consortium of 113 African universities operating within 38 countries spanning the African continent. It is an African led and managed International Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) with a mandate to oversee graduate training in Africa. It supports universities to address the important and largely unfulfilled role that universities play in contributing to the well‐being of small‐scale farmers and economic development of countries throughout the Sub‐Saharan Africa region. Every after two years, RUFORUM holds its biennial, now tri-annual conferences that bring together over 450 stakeholders across Africa and Europe to further the Higher Education Agenda in Africa. We were consulted to support the development, editing and formatting of Information, Educational and Communication (IEC) Materials that would be used during the event and other exhibition events after the event.
Our Solution
We designed and mounted the promotional materials for exhibition (pullups, infographics, flyers etc) allowing for a clear well thought out storytelling experience for visitors who visited the RUFORUM exhibition area. Developed, edited and formatted communication materials that show cased RUFORUM’s contribution and impact on the African continent. Though our engagement, we offered professional advice for event marketing and supported their social media campaign for the African Higher Education Week.
