Season 1, Episode 11: Nontobeko Mtshali

Nontobeko Mtshali is the Education and Energy and Environment Editor at The Conversation Africa. The team of editors at The Conversation works with academics to translate their research findings into readable news articles for the public. This provides a valuable platform for science communication, and bridges the gap between pieces written about science by non-scientists, and the scientific outputs themselves. Having worked with The Conversation for many years, writing pieces that break down my research outputs, and writing commissioned articles on current climate events, I am very excited to have Nontobeko on this podcast to talk about the process followed at The Conversation Africa. I should also mention that my own first podcast appearance was on The Conversation’s podcast Pasha, run by Ozayr Patel.   The Conversation Africa can be found here: https://theconversation.com/africa   And The Coversation Africa's podcast Pasha can be found here: https://theconversation.com/africa/podcasts/pasha-theconversation-africa   Many thanks to GENUS Palaeoscience for supporting this podcast.
