Week 4 educator Ai Ling welcomes you to this week’s learning

While in week 3 we talked about more general skills such as story telling, this week focuses on more advanced advocacy skills: we examine further how advocates can contribute to research, influence policy, and promote genomics literacy.

We are presenting case studies that illustrate some of these skills and also consider the conditions that support successful advocacy and the limits or constraints that may be encountered.
