The KIPPRA Mentorship Programme for Universities (KMPUs) is designed to encourage and promote the next generation of leaders with successful career in their fields. KMPUs distinct feature is harnessing the link between academia and public policy making for purposes of promoting national development. 
 

The overall objective of the KMPUs programme, is to create awareness and develop capacity of the University Community in understanding the public policy making process.
More specifically the programme will:
• Enlighten the University Community on public policy the government is implementing in pursuit of the development agenda. 
• Provide an information resource for students seeking career experience in public policy research and analysis.
• Nurture mentorship to strengthen skills of students aspiring to build a career in public policy process.
• Provide a platform to discuss emerging policy issues that have the potential to shape research and analysis activity.
• Share with the University Community on governance aspects that influence the way we engage in building the economy including the national values.
