“Yesterday at CUAMM office in Kampala, we had an important meeting with the presidents of the health professional associations of Uganda to share the mentorship activity plan of the“Reproductive, Maternal, and Child Health Services Improvement Project” (URMCHIP), financed by the World Bank and implemented by the Ministry of Health – tells Dr. Peter Lochoro, CUAMM Country Manager in Uganda -. We had the chance to discuss together the memorandum of understanding”.
The meeting held in Kampala aimed to introduce the URMCHIP mentorship activity that will be carried out in Karamoja in addition to the eight project CUAMM is already implementing in the region. The meeting took place in the presence of the executive director of the Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the president of the Association of Surgeons, the secretary general of the Association of Anesthesiologists, the president of the Anesthetic Officers Association, and the president of Uganda Paediatric Association.
“Everyone welcomed the engagement and pledged to work together – adds Peter Lochoro -. Next week we are starting with the training needs assessment and hopefully an entry meeting with the district departments of health”.
A new and great opportunity to reinforce the commitment of Doctors with Africa CUAMM in Karamoja.
