The Academy of Sciences Malaysia (ASM) and TWAS are seeking candidates to participate in the regional training workshop on science diplomacy . The event was originally to be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, from 20 to 24 July 2020 but it will be rescheduled to a later date due to the covid-19 pandemic. Selected candidates will be duly informed of the new date.
The workshop will provide participants with insights into key issues in science diplomacy with a regional perspective.
