In this last week before holiday office closures, we want to reminisce on 2020, the good times... and the less good times... but most importantly we want to acknowledge our partners for their amazing support. Follow us this week for a trip down memory lane!
The year started on a high, hosting former Africa SciDir & #TaRL Africa board member, @JPAL co-founder, & #NobelPrize winner #AbhijitBanerjee at our office.
