THET
is pleased to announce a fourth round of grants under the Africa Grants
Programme (AGP) with support from Johnson & Johnson.
AGP supports the training of health workers in low- and middle-income
countries, through engaging partnerships between health organisations in
the UK and Ireland and their counterparts in Sub-Saharan Africa. More information on the AGP and the projects funded in the first, second and third rounds of the grant programme is available here.
The fourth round of the Africa Grants Programme will take a different
approach from previous years, moving away from community healthcare to
focus on essential surgery and anaesthesia for mothers and children.
The focus of this round will be on reducing morbidity and mortality
from conditions requiring essential surgical intervention and/or
enhancing patient safety as a result of improved anaesthetic care
through the training of relevant health workers. The aim of this stream
is to improve the access to, and availability of, quality surgery and/or
anaesthetic care for maternal, neonatal or paediatric surgical
conditions.
