Scientific Symposium: Practicing Interdisciplinarity in Global Health Research
On Tuesday, November 3, a scientific symposium titled“Practicing Interdisciplinarity in Global Health Research: Lessons Learned, Obstacles, and Enablers for Early-Career Researchers”brought together about 40 people at Agropolis International.
This event was organized by the I-Care doctoral Nexus to share and put their interdisciplinary experiences into perspective. The discussions were enriched by a forum theater session, co-written specifically for the event with the CoTéACT theater troupe.
