It takes a village: the support needed for early child development

At a time when key building blocks in emotional, physical, and cognitive development are established, laying foundations for positive growth is crucial. This webinar will focus on the critical aspects of early life, and spotlight the vital role of community and family in supporting children’s development. It will showcase how Warwick's pioneering research into the long-lasting impact of our childhood experiences aims to make a difference for children and families across the world.

Africa: the global powerhouse of the future

By 2050, a quarter of the world’s people will be African, shaping geopolitics, global trade, migration, technological development, the future of the world’s dominant religions – almost every aspect of life. As the continent continues to undergo this remarkable period of economic and social transformation, Warwick's enduring connection to Africa is only deepening.

In this webinar, our Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Stuart Croft, was live in conversation with Warwick alumna Bience Gawanas, Vice-Chair of the Global Fund. Named as one of the 100 most influential Africans, Bience studied law at Warwick after leaving Namibia under apartheid and going into exile.
