Research summary

Julia Bello-Bravo's work focuses on using low-cost digital tools, especially animated educational videos, to spread agricultural, health, and scientific knowledge to communities with limited literacy or internet access, often in Africa and other developing regions. Her research examines how these tools affect learning, gender inclusion, decision-making, and preservation of traditional/indigenous knowledge, and evaluates their reach and cost-effectiveness. Much of this connects to the Scientific Animations Without Borders (SAWBO) initiative and broader UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) themes.
