Join us on Wednesday, December 8th at 4:30 PM EST for our first December Afternoon Tertulia- #CienciaPR: Lessons Learned from the COVID-19 Response. We will be joined by members of Ciencia Puerto Rico: Giovanna Guerrero Medina, Monica Feliu Mojer, and Greetchen Diaz Muñoz to discuss the impact of COVID-19 on the archipelago, Puerto Rico’s quick response to the global pandemic, accurate health communications within the islet, targeting misinformation, pushing for accountability within government and policy makers, and supporting continued education amongst Puerto Rican children. In this Tertuli­a, we will discuss the efforts that have been made in Puerto Rico since March 2020, how these efforts can be applied in other contexts, and the insight gained from the start of the pandemic until now.
