Nakalawa Suzan
Makerere University School of Public Health.
About
Suzan is a final year Environmental Health Science student at Makerere University.
The MAK-NTU COIL Project was a six weeks long project about antimicrobial resistance. The project involved students from Makerere University in Uganda and Nottingham Trent University in the United Kingdom. The participating students worked collaboratively using different online means.
By the end of the project, students developed their teamwork and communication skills. They also got to learn about each other's cultures, courses and career aspirations. They gained knowledge about antimicrobial resistance, antimicrobial stewardship and One health and created posters and booklets about these topics. They also prepared resources for this year's joint NTU-MAK event for the World Antibiotic Awareness Week(WAAW) celebrations due to take place in November.
