It's #postdocappreciationweek With close to 30 #postdocs in BRECcIA conducting the majority of our research, they form the principal driving force of our project. We should certainly appreciate them not only in this week of reflection, but at all times.

The fab @clare_viney gives @GCRF_BRECcIA a shout out! Thank u! Clare asks how can we enable researchers to connect & collaborate more? Help them to reframe research questions that invite connectivity is one way, Clare says. Also we can use Vitae RDF #VitaeCon2020 @SADC_WaterNet Retweeted by BRECcIA

Tina Ramkalawan echoed Rajesh Tandon & Jose Jackson-Malete on researchers & academic systems responding directly to local contexts when she quoted researcher: "We can't eat papers & publications". This is why capacity to engage others matters @GCRF_BRECcIA @UoS_Engagement Retweeted by BRECcIA

Rajesh Tandon excellent talk #VitaeCon2020 We need to train researchers to address local challenges. Universal concepts & theories don't equip them for real world. ECRs need capacity to respect other views. Made me think of @GCRF_BRECcIA & Public engagement work @UoS_Engagement pic.twitter.com/r00t0HstGn Retweeted by BRECcIA

@GCRF_BRECcIA Jose Jackson-Malete: Demands on PIs are a global constant (papers, funding) but in Africa research leaders face specifc problems & must be able to translate research into policy. ECRs need to know how to impact policy with research. @SADC_WaterNet @PublicPolicyUoS Retweeted by BRECcIA
