There has been a good amount of feedback thrown by the survey, thanks for your collaboration!
We are now certain that the topics we have planned to cover are of interest of most participants. This gives us a green light to start this Learning Alliance.
With your suggestions, we will make some adjustments to the module outline to cover the topics you are more interested in.
It is encouraging for us to know that the learning alliance knowledge will help shape practices, promote debate, and feed research and policy making! We are happy to contribute to these goals.
We look forward to your active engagement in the following
discussions!
