The projects listed below are representative of the technical assistance and training activities conducted by MSU faculty in the developing world (project titles in alphabetical order):

Afrobarometer
The Afrobarometer project measures the social, political, and economic atmosphere in Africa. Since beginning in Zambia in 1993, surveys have been conducted in Botswana, Ghana, Lesotho, Namibia, Nigeria, Malawi, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe. Additional countries to be surveyed in 2002 and beyond include Senegal, Cabo Verde and Mozambique. Topics covered in the survey include Democracy, Governance, Livelihoods, Macro-economics and Markets, Social Capital, Conflict and Crime, Participation and National Identity. Led by MSU, the Afrobarometer involves the core partners of The Institute for Democracy in South Africa and the Centre for Democratic Development (Ghana). This project has been supported by funds from the National Science Foundation, the United States Agency for International Development, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency, the Danish Governance Trust Fund at the World Bank, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Michigan State University.
