Abstract:

A Network Science Center research team demonstrated a network analysis tool kit to the Political and Economic Sections at the US Embassy in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This rigorous quantitative analysis package provides the capability to assist decision makers with policy development. Additionally, the team refined a data collection methodology that will allow the development of local network topologies. In Ethiopia, the team focused on the local entrepreneurial environment and collected data from local small business owners.
