Whilst the Gorongosa Interdisciplinary Field School in Human Evolution has no tuition fees, the costs of travel can present a major barrier, so we are incredibly grateful to @TheLeakeyFndtn & @PASTEvolve for supporting these students to access valuable training and experience 🙏

A generous grant from @PASTEvolve enabled students from @uemmoz in Mozambique to join the Gorongosa Interdisciplinary Field School in Human Evolution 2024 - a significant step in empowering young Mozambican students to contribute to the scientific community 🙌🇲🇿
