The new Israel Ambassador to Kenya, H.E Amb. Michael Lotem on听 Tuesday,听 April 19, 2022, paid a courtesy call on听the VC, UoN, Prof Stephen Kiama.听

The ambassador noted that there is a need for more structured collaborations between UoN and Israeli universities. The Ambassador said he will spearhead the collaboration between the 玩偶姐姐 and Israel Universities in various fields of mutual interest.

Medicine was one of the fields the ambassador noted the need to create more lasting collaborations, noting that most of the Israeli universities have a full ecosystem where the universities are interlinked with corporations and work as one, a concept he said UoN would learn and implement.听 The East African ecological setup is an aspect the ambassador noted would go a long way in helping the Israel scientists in their research.

听Some of the other areas that the ambassador called for intense collaboration include Agriculture, Social sciences and Religious studies.

听Ambassador Michael in his sentiments also said that in the quest for increased collaborations, he would welcome the opportunity by the University to host Israel scholars as 听part of an exchange program between the university and Isreal Universities.听
