Friends and Alumni of the Yaoundé Seminar: We are announcing a one-year postponement of the 2020 Seminar, "Ethics, Public Policy, and Health" to August 2021.

It is of the utmost importance during this ongoing pandemic that we each protect our health and the health of our local and host communities. It is also more important than ever to nurture our bonds to one another, so that we might continue to make progress toward a just and flourishing world together. We affirm both of these values with our postponement of the Yaoundé Seminar, to a time when we can all safely meet and learn together again. With this postponement, we also now turn our attention to finding new ways to connect in the Yaoundé community and to refine our work in this moment of global health upheaval.

We look forward to meeting in-person for our seminar in August 2021! Dates will be announced soon and the call for abstracts will reopen in the time leading up to the seminar. Please look for those announcements. Thank you to all of our wonderful applicants so far. We will continue to be in touch with you directly.
