A team of researchers from Aberdeen University could hold the key to bringing down corrupt governments currently terrorising citizens in Africa. The Aberdeen team will be led by Professor Zeray Yihdego, an expert in international law and the issues being faced by countries in the Horn of Africa. They will work alongside those from the African Research Universities Association, based at Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia, and scholars in Western Cape, South Africa. The three academics who make up the Aberdeen team will also supervise some PhD and masters students, helping them to carry out similar research. A number of visits to the north-east from those working on the project elsewhere are already in the pipeline.
