Dear Stakeholders,
The Association of African Universities has rolled out a sensitization programme on COVID-19 which seeks to engage experts from all over the world to talk on key issues identified as important information for the general public. Dubbed the “The COVID-19 Diary’, the programme aims to leverage the existing Association of African Universities Television (AAU TV) initiative to promote science engagement in Africa by strengthening the collaborations among science journalists, health journalists, communicators, higher education communities, researchers, policy makers and the general public. It ultimately seeks to produce factual and impactful science communication stories and media products on emerging infectious diseases such as COVID-19.
All stakeholders are invited to participate in the second episode of the COVID-19 Diary series as follows:
Date: Wednesday, December 8, 2021 (Tomorrow)
Time: 11.00 GMT (Please convert this to your local time)
Venue: Virtual – Please register via this link – https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwrceurpjsvGdRLPTeouUOkVoNrPeQfCU3J
