For your ideas to cause change in the world, they must be shared. Engaging others can be intimidating, but strategies and skills for reaching new audiences can be learnt.
Jive Media Africa provides training and mentorship in media and communication. We initiated the international FameLab ‘talking science’ competition in South Africa in 2013 and offer a wide range of science engagement training packages through #theArtofResearch.
Grow your impact and influence by sharpening skills for communication, media production and community engagement.

Jive Media Africa gave me an entirely new perspective on science engagement. Today, I can confidently stand in front of a crowd and speak boldly about my science without any fear that my message is getting lost.
