Thanks for sharing. I read many of your blog posts, cool, your blog is very good.
This sounds like a great event! Recognizing researchers’ excellence is so important. I’m curious about the creative Arts Award. How do they define success in non – traditional research in literary and creative arts? Do they look at things like book sales, critical acclaim, or something else? Can’t wait to hear about the winners in all the categories!
This is super exciting! Kudos to UNIZULU for recognizing researchers’ excellence. It’s great to see different categories like Service and Development getting their due. I wonder which category will have the most innovative research this year. And that creative Arts Award sounds amazing. I once had a friend who did some really unique literary research. Can’t wait to hear about the winners at the gala dinner!
