#Testimonials: "From the African Scientifique Introductory Workshop, I learnt that just gaining knowledge about mathematics and science is not enough, I need to be able to communicate the science to the general public in a way that they can understand. Secondly, I learnt that the science that we know can be of help to the general public and if we keep it inside us, its not going to be known out there. It is very important to know how to communicate science because it will help me in my career in academics and most importantly it will benefit my community and Africa at large. I also learnt that when you are talking to people, its important to know your audience so that you know how to communicate to them well." AS Introductory workshop participant
