I've loved being a part of creating this newsletter- it includes so many interesting blogs and I encourage everyone to give it a read. My favourite issue was maybe the 2025 roundup blog, which summarised our wonderful researcher collaborations and reflected on how far the project had come in just over a year.  Stay tuned for more brilliant newsletters from Virginia and the SDG 3 Newsletter group!
