The South Africa-Sweden University Forum (SASUF) consists of 25 South African and 12 Swedish universities, working together to develop joint solutions to today´s challenges. In late June this year, SASUF was awarded a new granting period from STINT (Swedish Foundation for International Cooperation in Research and Higher Education), and NRF (South African National Research Foundation). These fundings mark the start of the new funding period SASUF+, running from August 2025 to August 2028.
