Cumulus is pleased to announce that we have entered into a new partnership for the next two years with Biodesign Challenge (BDC).

Our priority has been to address the full array of implications for our association brought about by the crisis as we continue to hear from an increasing number of our member institutions currently in lockdown and having shifted all of their teaching and learning online.

Dear Cumulusians, please note that as of March 25th, the Cumulus Secretariat works remotely. E-mail, phones, social media works well to contact us. Stay healthy and safe!

Cumulus is a resilient community and we are making the intentional choice to embrace the challenge in a designerly way, identifying those courses of action that might allow us to change the present situation into preferred alternatives for more sustainable and hopeful futures.

Cumulus follows and takes seriously the development of the Covid-19 outbreak.
