We are proud to present the 4th Forensic DNA Symposium, yet another groundbreaking event bringing together African and International Forensic Experts. This year’s event will be held in the beautiful country of Zambia alongside the spectacular Victoria Falls, where we continue our tradition of showcasing the beauty and splendor abundant in our region. Moreover, DNAforAfrica and our event partners ICRC and UNODC have worked hard to ensure that this year’s event achieves sustainable outcomes with a concrete implementation plan emanating from the ideas and frameworks we are proposing for forensic capacity development in our region.
