The GeneConvene Academy
The GeneConvene Academy is a learning platform created by the GeneConvene Global Collaborative to foster and promote learning about various aspects of genetic approaches to managing public health, agricultural and environmental pests.
The GeneConvene Global Collaborative is a project within the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health that works to enable knowledgeable decision-making around gene drive and other genetic biocontrol technologies.
Knowledge sharing and knowledge capacity strengthening within stakeholder communities are core activities of the GeneConvene Global Collaborative. The GeneConvene Virtual Institute and The GeneConvene Academy were created to serve those ends.
