Congratulations to Samuel van Gele on being awarded the PEX 2025 fellowship.
The German-South African Public Engagement Exchange (PEX), launching this month, is a new initiative funded by the BMBF and hosted by the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin’s Public Engagement and Impact Unit. PEX is a distinctive leadership program that connects researchers and public engagement professionals to enhance science and empower society. The program will bring together 40 researchers from South Africa and Germany in an innovative leadership and innovation initiative focused on public engagement. This framework fosters interactions between science and society, creating mutual benefits that strengthen both fields.
