2020 ONLINE EDAMBA ANNUAL MEETING AND GENERAL ASSEMBLY
ONLINE, September 25 & 29, 2020
As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, EDAMBA has decided to hold the 2020 Annual Meeting and General Assembly as an online event, free of charge!
We are excited to welcome you back to the EDAMBA family as we think the next few years will be a period of growth, challenge and change for you all, and we are proud to be part of that journey. Moreover, we would like to take this unique opportunity to reflect together on the current situation for enhancing quality of doctoral programmes throughout our global network and charting the way forward for the academic year 2020-2021.
Our objective is to keep putting a premium on learning together throughout our network and community of doctoral programs spanning five continents. The event has been adapted to allow our members in different time zones to attend and at the same time make use of the available online technology in a sensible format.
