Centre for Basic Research (CBR) - Kampala, Uganda

Centre for Basic Research (CBR) was established in 1987, registered as an educational trust, and later as a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) in 1988. Its establishment was inspired by concern with the prevailing situation in which more and more local researchers were being drawn into short-run consultancies to meet immediate financial needs, thereby turning long-term research into a prerogative of non-national agencies.

CBR has since conducted a significant amount of research and disseminated its research results through publications (books, working papers, occasional papers, workshop proceedings, policy briefs) available in CBR library; workshops, seminars and training.
