However, with the dramatic increases in the number of scholarly and creative works produced at the University as well as with the rising challenges being posed by poor quality and\/or unethical publication outlets, establishing merit of scholarly publications and creative works has now become more onerous than ever before. Therefore, it is imperative to prepare and use guidelines to thoroughly vet publications and creative works submitted by staff members for academic promotions, employment, and related purposes.<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/localhost\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Guideline-for-establishing-merits-of-publication-and-creative-works-at-Haramaya-University.pdf\"><u>Guidelines for Establishing Merit of Publications and Creative Works at Haramaya University<\/u><\/a><\/span><\/li><\/ul>","align":"justify","_padding":{"unit":"px","top":"10","right":"10","bottom":"10","left":"10","isLinked":true},"_border_border":"solid","_border_width":{"unit":"px","top":"1","right":"1","bottom":"1","left":"1","isLinked":true},"_border_radius":{"unit":"px","top":"20","right":"20","bottom":"20","left":"20","isLinked":true}},"elements":[],"widgetType":"text-editor"},{"id":"tk7iqub","elType":"widget","settings":{"editor":"<h5><span style=\"color: #00ccff; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">Guidelines for Research Incentives and Rewards<\/span><\/h5><p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">In Haramaya University, researchers have long been engaged in research activities that benefited the local communities and the nation at large. However, researchers have not been adequately recognized for their contributions through incentive mechanisms. As a result, the university could not ensure its researchers' full engagement in result-oriented research activities. Thus, to increase research outputs, stimulate participation in research endeavors, enhance competitiveness and raise the university profile at national and international levels, it is important to create incentive and award system for acknowledging staff for their contributions. This document is meant to provide a framework for merit-based recognition of researchers. The ultimate goal is to build motivated and devoted scientific or scholarly community in the university.<\/span><\/p><ul><li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/localhost\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Research-Incentives.pdf\"><u>Guidelines for Research Incentives and Rewards<\/u><\/a><\/span><\/li><\/ul>","align":"justify","_padding":{"unit":"px","top":"10","right":"10","bottom":"10","left":"10","isLinked":true},"_border_border":"solid","_border_width":{"unit":"px","top":"1","right":"1","bottom":"1","left":"1","isLinked":true},"_border_radius":{"unit":"px","top":"20","right":"20","bottom":"20","left":"20","isLinked":true}},"elements":[],"widgetType":"text-editor"},{"id":"6dc4q4h","elType":"widget","settings":{"editor":"<h5><span style=\"color: #33cccc;\">Research Proposal, Research Report, Manuscript, and Policy Brief<\/span><\/h5><p>Over the past decades, Haramaya University has been expanding.
