Let us join TSAN- a HUB and a platform to create scientifically equipped society in our beloved region/country

What is TSAN?
TSAN (Tigrians Scientific and Academic Network):  is an international academic network of Tigrian students, educators and intellectuals, which is established with the primary aim of serving our country as a “HUB “and "PLATFORM” to see a strong scientific community capable of competing at the global market. It is with this purpose that it thrives to mobilise the potential intellectual work force to help bring a sustainable and all rounded development backed by a strong scientific and technological foundation in our region in particular and the country in general. TSAN currently have more than 300 registered members (with bachelor degree and above) and more than 530 on its virtual network in a very short period of time.

This program is a continuation of the ‘Wefri Tegaru’ mission where students and academicians who live abroad went to Tigray in summer 2010 E.C and delivered a very successful wefri on technology transfer, tutoring, mentoring and consultation services. Currently, TSAN along with other stakeholders is preparing to conduct a number of activities in the coming summer on technology transfer (academic visits, panel discussions, conferences, science fair events etc.), summer school (mentoring, tutoring, consultation, training etc.), and scholarship (provision of training and preparing booklets on how, when, and where to find appropriate scholarship programs). Every Tigrian who supports this noble cause is cordially invited to be part of TSAN’s summer programme.

What is the motivation behind TSAN?
Our society taught us without educating itself as it was marginalized for many years, so now we feel it is our duty to pay back to our society by doing little from what we can do. To this end, we Tigrian students, educators, intellectuals and others who are engaged in academics and live all over the world have to be networked and work in harmony with our government, people, and all other stakeholders to alleviate the long stayed poverty by building a modern, scientifically and technologically equipped young generation.

What is TSAN’s Vision?
To help produce scientifically, globally competent generation in Tigray by educating the youth through hierarchical sharing of global intellect and experience.
 

What is TSAN Mission?
To provide a platform for Tigrian professionals and academicians throughout the world to play their role in converting brain drain to brain gain which in turn facilitates the overall development of the nation.
