Technical assistance for the Zimbabwe National Road Administration
NTU has been shortlisted for technical assistance for the Zimbabwe National Road Administration. NTU has been present in Africa for many years, and our extensive work in both the central and southern regions of Africa has provided us with a broad general local-knowledge and detailed understanding of the cultural environment, which is a must for ensuring effective and sustainable results. Our local-knowledge is especially important when working with local authorities in African countries, where the challenges are often different than what we see elsewhere. By combining our local-knowledge with our expertise in technical assistance tasks, NTU will be able to provide the Zimbabwe National Road Administration with expert guidance, which will help ensure a successful result.
