IUCEA Celebrates 50 Years (1970 – 2020)
The event marks its evolution journey from the then Inter-University Committee (IUC) which mainly focused on academic cooperation between universities that were descendants of the colleges of the University of East Africa to the current Inter-University Council for East Africa, a strategic institution of the East African Community (EAC) responsible for strategic development of higher education for human resource development and research.
