Centre de Recherche en Hydrobiologie (CRH, Uvira, D.R. Congo)
Completed in 1949 under Belgian direction, this station has focused on studies of the Lake Tanganyika ecosystem. Today, the Center houses three research departments: Biology, Hydrology and Fishery Economics. There is a guesthouse for foreign researchers and students. The Center lost most of its research equipment during the Congolese civil war, but the facility still maintains a staff of 18 researchers and 10 assistants.
