From February 20-24th, 2023, the first in-person training session of the GSAF took place at the UGHE Butaro Campus in Rwanda. This training session brought together fellows, facilitators, and mentors from diverse professional and geographical backgrounds for a five-day intensive policy and advocacy training session. One goal of the first in-person training was to provide the fellows with the skills and support to identify clear and actionable advocacy goals and develop their CAP to be implemented throughout the year. The in-person training also provided an opportunity for fellowship, enabling the fellows to get to know each other and their mentors and engage with the UGHE community.
