Academic mentors at the University of Edinburgh are working with fellows from Zambia, Kenya, Malawi and Uganda to provide training in technical and transferable skills that align with the needs and aims of the National Action Plans for AMR in each country. The Communications and Training Manager will develop and deliver training for the Fleming Fund Fellows in communications, writing for diverse audiences, policy advocacy and public engagement. They will also deliver the communications strategy for the Fleming Fund Fellowship Scheme at the University of Edinburgh, including managing web and social media platforms and regular newsletters for internal and external audiences.
