Co-hosting with partners in Pakistan
Given the challenges presented by COVID-19, the ANH Academy Week took place online for the second time in 2021. We welcomed the global community of researchers, practitioners and policymakers to join us for an exciting and interactive programme spread over two weeks. Historically, the ANH Academy Week rotates annually between African and Asian countries to lower barriers to regional participation. This year, we were honoured to be co-hosting ANH2021 in collaboration with partners in Pakistan:
- Collective for Social Science Research
- Dow University of Health Sciences
- Institute for Global Health and Development at Aga Khan University
- University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF)
Throughout the Research Conference there were various opportunities to hear the latest evidence, experiences and lessons learnt from the region. Thank you for joining us and getting involved!
