Standing up to #Covid19 institutional and social gridlock, a team of 20 - African Institute for Mathematical Sciences- AIMS, ICRISAT and MANOBI Africa scientists (55% women) engaged in an unprecedented learning experience in the largest intake of AIMS alumni to date. These trailblazers powered up a cohort of the Mathematical Sciences for Climate Resilience (#MS4CR) #internshipprogram into a nimble remote working team spanning 13 countries and 10 time zones.
