Funded by USAID under the partnership with Fulbright University Vietnam, ASEAN Social Impact Program is an annual initiative that aims to equip young changemakers with necessary knowledge, skills, and resources to tackle social issues in line with the United Nation\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Sustainable Development Goals. In 2024, the program will mainly focus on the theme of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Good Health & Wellbeing\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Science Visit project, initiated in 2017, is an initiative of OUCRU\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Public and Community Engagement Group. Its aim is to inspire and engage school students in OUCRU’s scientific work, fostering a lifelong appreciation for research. During these visits, students are given a glimpse into real scientific labs and participate in engaging activities that provide insight into the work and lives of biomedical scientists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Science Visit also offers opportunities for OUCRU researchers to enhance their science communication skills by discussing their work with students through participatory methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2017, we have engaged more than 160 young people, including college and secondary students, and 16 OUCRU researchers. After a brief hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Science Visit has resumed, welcoming eager young individuals to immerse themselves in a science-focused environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
