DAAD Regional Office Nairobi

© DAAD Kenia
The DAAD representation in the Kenyan capital Nairobi started as a small adjunct office in September 1973. By 1979, the small office had grown into a fully-fledged DAAD Regional Office for Africa providing information about DAAD’s full range of academic programmes.

Today, the Nairobi Office with its nine staff members offers consultation on study and research opportunities and funding possibilities for individual scholars in Germany and the East Africa region, for university collaboration between German and East African universities and research institutes, and for capacity building for university staff members at East African universities.

The DAAD Nairobi branch office is located in the capital’s Upper Hill area, next to Milimani Commercial Court on Upper Hill Close. Our visiting hours are Wednesdays between 10 am and 12 noon where visitors can just pass by without an appointment and will be assisted. Otherwise, we can arrange meetings individually. We also offer virtual visiting hours, on Thursdays, 10 am -11 am, as well as regular web seminars to inform you about the DAAD.

Staff

Our ten staff in Nairobi are happy to assist with guidance and expertise.
