REDe Specialist Skills Workshops Brazil 2020
This initiative aims to support local responses to epidemic outbreaks and relevant research agendas and encourage activities to further strengthen regional research capacity. Given the social-economic burden of disease outbreaks in developing countries, we would like to broaden our work alongside Brazilian researchers to build long-lasting health research capability in Brazil as part of our mission to promote research capacity development in Latin American and Caribbean countries.
Earlier this year, REDe launched a call offering funding and seeking collaboration in co-organising a series of *free* training workshops to promote research skills development for healthcare professionals across Brazil. In response to this call, four teams have been successfully awarded to design and deliver the next series of skill development opportunities.
Please see here for more details and updates regarding these open workshops!
