Review: bones, schools, and dementia

It’s hard to believe that we’re already coming to the end of season 2 of Africa Science Focus! Over the next few weeks we’ll take you back through some of the most important issues that we dug into this season.

Today, we’ll hear again from some of the best science communicators who have come on the show to tell you about their work. We’ll learn about the Cradle of Humankind, where some of the world’s most important human fossils have been found; we’ll hear how Uganda’s long school shutdown may have affected learning; and we’ll find out why Africa needs to develop a better understanding of dementia. 

Catch up on the full interviews included in today’s show:
