g previous outbreaks. The workshops include the topics of mathematical modeling, outbreak data modeling, wastewater epidemiology, the analysis routine health data to inform outbreak response, and AI/machine learning with practical implementation using large real-world datasets. The workshop participants will include researchers in public health and research institutes across South Africa, Uganda, Botswana, Rwanda, Cameroon, Mozambique, Malawi and Kenya leveraging existing strong networks in the region. The second aim of improving communication of model outputs to policymakers, will be realised through training on the development of interactive dashboards, e-platforms for education, and training on evidence-based decision-making. An additional aim of the project is to ensure ensure sustainability by creating a pipeline of researchers. The STEAM-3D project will include mentoring of trainees and the use open-source free platforms to keep materials accessible post-project. In addition to this all trainees will form part of an Infectious Disease Modelling Working Group featuring seminars
