About us
Centre for Applied Research and Innovation in Supply Chain‑Africa
CARISCA’s key objective is to support higher education institutions in building the capacity necessary to provide best-in-class degree programs and training, facilitate research translation and utilization and engage stakeholders in best practices and policy changes that strengthen supply chains.
What we do
CARISCA divides its activities into components namely: research, stakeholder engagement and curriculum. These components push CARISCA closer to its aim to increase research capacity, strengthen and update supply chain curricula, and provide supply chain management expertise to Ghana and Africa.
These activities also focus on developing partnerships and revenue-generating activities to sustain ongoing growth and influence in supply chain education, research and practice.
Our three components
Research

Stakeholder Engagement

Curricula & Training
To develop relevant evidence-based training opportunities to benefit students and supply chain management practitioners in Ghana and beyond.
