Today we are celebrating International Day of Education. Education is at the heart of global health partnership activity, rooted in sustainable development. Through training and bi-directional learning, we can improve healthcare for all.
‘[The partnership] has opened up my thoughts to alternatives to what I actually practice every day, which is something I find beneficial and it has a trickledown effect because what I learn I will also teach my students who are under my care so it will have a ripple down effect and to eventually improve the outcomes of the patients.’ – Uganda Partnership Lead, Kampala-Cambridge Partnership
‘Getting involved in a health partnership has opened my eyes to new approaches and ways of tackling problems here at CUH. Being on the obstetrics wards in Kampala, and watching partners manage a high volume of patients with resource constraints is inspirational. I will bring these skills and novel approaches back to the UK, improving my practice and patient care.’ – UK Volunteer, Kampala-Cambridge Partnership
