In this third episode of our series, you’ll hear from community connectors working in South Africa who play key roles in bridging the gap between research and communities. They are joined by a CEI consultant from the UK and host, NIHR's Gary Hickey. This episode focuses on exploring what connectors do, and the crucial role that they can have in ensuring effective CEI in research. The guests also share their top tips for people looking to work with connectors to improve CEI in their own projects.
