Assessment of the Scholars and Artists in Non-Campus Countries (NCCs) Program

The CDB-funded program provides residents, students, artists and scholars with access to mentors, counterparts and possible collaborators, while facilitating research relevant to CDB countries, and stimulates intellectual, creative and artistic activity. Universalia was contracted to assess the performance of the NCCs program through an evaluation of the program’s system of placing scholars and artists. Universalia also provided recommendations to: develop an appropriate strategy for identifying and recruiting scholars and artists; develop an appropriate structure for sustaining the program; and develop a comprehensive human and financial resource mobilization strategy for UWI.
