Under the Researcher Links scheme offered within the Newton Fund, the British Council will be holding a workshop on the above theme in Padang, Indonesia from 28 August-1 September 2016. The workshop is being coordinated by Sheffield Hallam University and Andalas University Indonesia, and will have contributions from other leading researchers. We are now inviting Early Career Researchers from the UK and Indonesia to apply to attend this workshop. All travel and accommodation expenses will be covered by the Newton Researcher Links programme.
The plan is to bring together early career researchers, experts and stakeholders in a five day workshop to share their knowledge and experiences in this priority area with the aim of improving maternal and infant health.
The workshop will adopt an interdisciplinary approach to improving maternal and infant nutritional health and thus welcomes applicants from a range of disciplines. In particular, we are looking for researchers who are interested in exploring maternal and infant health and nutrition issues and their benefits to economic development and social wellbeing in Indonesia.
The workshop will be held in English.
For more information and to apply please download the information and application pack. The application form should be sent to Sadiq Bhanbhro (S.bhanbhro@shu.ac.uk) in the UK and Dr Hardisman Dasman (hardisman@gmail.com) in Indonesia by the deadline of 4pm in the UK and 10pm in Indonesia on 31 May.
