This week, another 140 Kenyan university students and professionals engaged in a discussion on how universities can strengthen biosecurity measures and promote responsible science.
The workshops are the result of a close cooperation between Denmark’s Centre for Biosecurity and Bioprepapredness, Kenya’s National Commission for Science, Technology and Innovation, Kenya’s Commission for University Education and respective universities. The workshops were held at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, Kenya Methodist University and Pwani University.
The workshops have generated substantial interest, in Kenya and internationally:
