Registration to the STRATEGIC training programme

Are you a trainer, researcher or ethics reviewer working or interested in the ethical use of Digital Health Technologies in clinical trial or research in sub-Saharan Africa?

Sign up, the STRATEGIC project training programme is made for you!

The EDCTP-funded STRATEGIC project and its international consortium work on developing capacity building across the sub-Sahara African (SSA) region on the use of Digital Health Technologies (DHT) in clinical trial and research. The STRATEGIC training material developed to this effect aims at bringing awareness and ensuring better expertise amongst experts as those technologies are quickly evolving. The use of DHTs represents a chance for public health but must be implemented ethically and in accordance with local values and principles.

If you are:

• A trainer based or active in SSA and focusing on DHTs and/or Research Ethics;

Or:

• A member of a National Ethics Committee or a National Regulatory Agency based in SSA and interested in developing expertise on the ethical use of DHTs in clinical trials and research;

Then this training programme is made for you! Do not wait and register online through the following link: REGISTRATION FORM.

The training programme will take place from July to October 2026 and will include two online trainings (one in English, one in French), as well as three onsite trainings (one in Cameroon in French, one in Ghana in English, and one in Mozambique in Portuguese). Those train-the-trainer´s programmes will cover one STRATEGIC training Module and train participants as trainers using the STRATEGIC´s materials in a one-day training. Participants will be awarded a certification and had the opportunity to be showcased on a dedicated webpage on the STRATEGIC website.

This training programme is completely free and voluntarily. Your data collected during the registration of interest with the following link will be kept stored by the STRATEGIC consortium only for the remaining time of the project.
