  1. Qualified professionals’ involvement in the solution of development-related problems in Sub-Saharan Africa
  2. Graduates strengthening education and research in Sub-Saharan Africa
  3. Structural strengthening and regional networking of partner institutions and partner universities

To achieve these long-term impacts, the following outcomes have been formulated as programme objectives:
Programme objective 1: Graduates have qualified to take over responsible positions in their, or for their, region of origin
Programme objective 2: The participation of women and underprivileged groups is reinforced
Programme objective 3: Organizational, financial and personal capacities of partner institutions are strengthened
