[25 Mar 2022] Linda Oskam and Prisca Zwanikken (KIT Royal Tropical Institute) facilitated the second interactive 4-day workshop in Koulikoro, Mali for members of the Association Malienne des Biotechnologistes (AMABIOT) to finalize the organization’s strategic plan to better serve their members and strengthen and increase the visibility of the diagnostic and public health laboratory services. As part of civil society, AMABIOT plays an important role in informing the general public and other stakeholders on the importance of laboratory services for the health of the population in Mali. It also intends to inform and educate its members on the latest developments in the field of laboratory sciences. 

During this second tailor-made training (TMT), which is part of the Orange Knowledge Programme of NUFFIC, the participants finalized the strategic plan, made a start with operational planning and discussed the importance of gender, social inclusion and sexual- and reproductive health for the optimal functioning of AMABIOT and the laboratory services.
