SCIDEV.NET Africa Launches
--------------------------
SciDev.Net is pleased to announce the launch of SciDev.Net Africa, a
regional network covering the countries of sub-Saharan Africa, the
first in a series of such initiatives. We hope that SciDev.Net Africa
will expand our regional coverage, improve the dissemination of
SciDev.Net material, and play a key role in achieving capacity build-
ing in science and technology communication.
SciDev.Net Africa is being launched at a workshop on 'Science Commu-
nication for Sustainable Development' in Entebbe, Uganda, which runs
from 29 September to 3 October. The event, organised by SciDev.Net,
will bring together more than 50 professional science communicators,
including journalists, editors, information officers, policy re-
searchers and scientists from 11 countries across the continent.
We will be posting daily bulletins direct from the workshop at:
