Science communication report

The international Network for the Availability of Scientific Publications (INASP) and the African Federation of Science Journalists (AFSJ) collaborated on a training workshop for science journalists and research communication staff from Sub-Saharan Africa.  The workshop was premised on the appreciation that for science journalists to effectively communicate science stories to the public they have to understand the way science is done, understand the limits of the scientific method and understand how to hold scientists to account.
