On May 23-25, the TRUST consortium will meet in the beautiful city of Nairobi, Kenya, for a case studies workshop organized by the TRUST partner Partners For Health And Development In Africa (PHDA). This workshop represents a unique opportunity for the consortium as the partners will be able to hear about risk factors for exploitation in research directly from two of the most vulnerable and also frequently researched populations in low and middle income countries; sex workers and indigenous peoples.
Senior Kenyans in the field of research ethics such as Prof. Anastasia Guantai, Prof. E. Bukusi, Prof. Kirana Bhatt, and Dr Simon Langat will also join the event, walking us through their concerns about international collaborative research.
More news about this event and the meeting minutes will be made available soon.
