For a period of 11 months, the University of Nairobi has sponsored an annual internship program for agriculture students in conjunction with the Arava International Centre for Agricultural Training (AICAT).
The center annually teaches more than 1,000 students from academic institutions, mostly in Africa and Asia.
Among the Kenyan institutions that have benefited from the initiative are the University of Nairobi, JKUAT, Egerton University, Kenyatta University, Kenya Water Institute, Turkana County, and Ramogi Institute of Advanced Technology.
