In a bid to strengthen responsible and participatory approaches to supporting marginalised communities in Zimbabwe, Manicaland State University of Applied Sciences (MSUAS) recently hosted the Responsible Critical Thinking for Human Rights of Marginalised Groups (RESPECT) training programme at Fernhill Campus in Mutare.

Conducted in partnership with Lund University and funded by the Swedish Kronor grant from Swedish Institute, the programme trained 20 postgraduate students as well as 25 research supervisors.

The training focused on interdisciplinary research methods and participatory action research, responsible critical thinking to addressing complex social challenges affecting vulnerable groups including advanced supervision skills to support the Universityโ€™s academic expansion.

Project facilitators, Professor Eva Brodin and Dr. Karin Steen from Lund University described the initiative as critical in addressing complex social challenges affecting vulnerable groups as well as empowering researchers with advanced skills.

"As facilitators from Lund University, we view this initiative as a critical step toward addressing the complex social challenges that impact vulnerable groups. Our goal is to empower researchers by equipping them with the advanced skills necessary to navigate these multifaceted issues effectively," said Prof Brodin

The RESPECT programme is strategically aligned with MSUASโ€™ recent application for accreditation to offer Doctor of Philosophy (DPhil) and Master of Philosophy (MPhil) programmes.

Commenting on the importance of the initiative,MSUAS Director of Quality Assurance and Project Coordinator Dr. Noah Mutongoreni commended the active involvement of university staff and students, describing their participation as essential for developing research frameworks that actively support and empower vulnerable communities.

"The dedication of our lecturers and students is what makes these initiatives truly paramount. By adopting participatory approaches, we are equipping ourselves to better serve the communities that need our expertise most,โ€ said Dr Mutongoreni

Beyond standard presentations, the programme served as a vital space for productive discussion and partnership, strengthening the university's dedication to building an inclusive society.

This successful collaboration serves as a fitting addition to MSUASโ€™s celebration of 10 years of academic excellence, reinforcing the university's commitment to impactful research and international partnership.

As Manicaland State University of Applied Sciences (MSUAS) celebrates 10 years of academic excellence, MSUAS Library hosted a Research Workshop on Wednesday 29 April 2026 at its Fernhill Campus, bringing together MSUAS members of staff for a focused and practical learning experience.

The workshop aimed to strengthen research capacity by equipping participants with essential academic tools and knowledge, while addressing critical aspects of scholarly work including the use of Turnitin, understanding predatory publishing, and selecting appropriate journals for publication.

Participants were guided by MSUAS Library staff through real world scenarios, demonstrating how to maintain academic integrity through proper citation practices and effective use of plagiarism detection tools such as Turnitin.

A key highlight of the session was an in-depth discussion on predatory publishing, a growing concern within academic circles.

Attendees were taken through the warning signs of illegitimate journals and were given practical strategies to ensure their research is published in credible and reputable platforms.

The facilitators emphasised the importance of safeguarding both personal and institutional academic reputation.

Equally impactful was the segment on choosing the right journal for publication, where staff members were introduced to various indexing platforms, journal ranking systems, and evaluation criteria to help them make informed decisions about where to submit their work.

This knowledge is expected to significantly improve the visibility and impact of research produced at MSUAS.

MSUAS Library continues to play a pivotal role in supporting the Universityโ€™s research agenda by providing training initiatives that empower staff with the tools needed for academic excellence.

The success of this workshop marks another step forward in strengthening MSUASโ€™s commitment to high quality research and innovation.
