2021Global Communication Workshop (GCW)

 

2021 marked the 9th annual TMDU Global Communication Workshop. It was held over four Saturdays in June, with undergraduate, high school and graduate student stakeholders playing the roles of the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control, Médecins Sans Frontières, Nigerian Ministry of Health, Kano State Government, and Local Community Leaders in a roundtable negotiation regarding the boycott of a polio vaccination program in Nigeria.

Through this workshop students were able to experience the challenges of stating their opinions, asking questions, and listening closely to find out what other stakeholders needed to allow the restart of vaccinations.
Amazingly, out of 185 participants only 2 students were unable to attend! This goes to show that online platform learning is a safe and convenient way to hold discussion workshops.
