Workshops
Interactive workshops allow delegates to learn a new skill from experienced professionals in a low-pressure environment.
Antimicrobial Resistance
Begin by introducing the topic of AMR while probing audience with questions and activities (e.g. word bubble activity). This is followed by the facilitators sharing their perspective on AMR, while incorporating relevant studies to show how scary AMR actually is. Delegates will then be able to make their own petri dishes by swabbing frozen fruits; these dishes will be incubated overnight, and images of the petri dishes will be sent out to delegates after the conference (if there are antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the fruits, they would grow on the plates that the students made)
