The Kenyan Higher Education landscape harbors considerable untapped academic potential and is currently seeking to fortify its institutional and research ecosystem for knowledge dissemination, collaboration, and alignment with internationalisation trends. PROSPER (PRomoting Opportunities and Strengthening Partnerships for Enhanced inteRnationalisation between Europe and Kenya) addresses the challenges faced by Kenyan universities by aiming to enhance their global standing. Grounded in a participative and collaborative capacity-building approach, it focuses on transversal and thematic objectives to empower staff, enhance strategies, and foster partnerships, aligning its goals with Kenya's national development Vision 2030. The PROSPER project has three primary outcomes: 1) To establish a robust cooperation framework by strengthening individual and institutional capacities. 2) To institutionalise best practices for global collaboration by integrating cooperation mechanisms, standards, and indicators into locally tailored strategies. 3) To foster a culture of collaboration, innovation, diversity, and global engagement through enhancing intercultural skills and providing peer-learning opportunities. It targets the qualifications of students, lecturers, and administrative staff, addressing specific needs in the fields of international outreach, international relations services, and digital collaboration, while ensuring a holistic and impactful approach to contribute to Kenya's goal of becoming a globally competitive middle-income country by 2030. The project is tailored to the Kenyan context and includes new organisations without prior CBHE programme benefits such as University of Eldoret, Open University of Kenya and TCC Africa. However, it also aims to create a ripple effect within the region, envisioning fully-fledged institutions actively supporting tailor-made internationalisation strategies, with support from African networks such as ANIE.
