Public health nutrition in the context of global public health: capacity development for health education and public health through virtual exchange between Sweden and South Africa

This SASUF-funded collaboration built on previous research collaborations in public health nutrition and life course epidemiology and further expanded our networks and activities through teaching collaborations. Between March 2023 and October 2024, the project connected universities in South Africa (UFS, UWC) and Sweden (SU, KI, UmU) through virtual teaching, mentoring, and research exchange - enhancing capacity in public health nutrition, public health ethics and global health across all levels of higher education.
