Abstract
In this issue of the journal, we are pleased to announce
an exciting three-year partnership with ‘Eye’ Journal
team of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists
(RCOphth). This partnership is part of the VISION
2020 COECSA-RCOphth LINK partnership that has
been in existence for the last 10 years and has led
to development and strengthening of the COECSA
fellowship exam and examiner training, curriculum
development, ‘train the trainers’ and online CPD.
The purpose of this new partnership is to leverage
on the COECSA-RCOphth relationship to raise the
standard and profile of JOECSA as a strong scientific
ophthalmic journal sharing research results across the
region by providing mentorship to the journal editorial
board, reviewers, and administrators. This mentorship
will be offered by the London School of Hygiene &
Tropical Medicine and the ‘Eye’ Journal team of the
Royal College of Ophthalmologists. This process is co
funded by British Council for Prevention of Blindness
(BCPB) and the RCOphth.
