We are continuing to strengthen and extend our African partnerships as we progress our student selection process for scholarships for the 2022 London International Youth Science Forum (LIYSF). We are excited to be working with partners in Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania and Zimbabwe in identifying students for in person attendance at the Forum as well as understanding how we can support online hubs for virtual attendance of African students.
Previous scholarship awardee Marina from Kenya has reported back to us about her experiences of her online attendance at the 62nd LIYSF expressing excitement at the opportunities this opened up for her; “The London Youth Science Forum is an educative, eye-opening and inspiring program to attend. l have benefitted so much from the program for it gave me a new insight into the science world. It deepened my thirst for different science subjects. The science visits, posters, workshops and lectures all took my knowledge to a new bar. It was an opportunity to connect to many people from all over the globe…this has enabled me exchange ideas with them. LIYSF was a life-time opportunity for me.”
