The Academic Model Providing Access to Healthcare (AMPATH) committed to taking action to address the challenge of strengthening the global health workforce during the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) 2023 Meeting today in New York City.
The Academic Model Providing Access to Healthcare (AMPATH) announced new partnership sites in Puebla, Mexico, and Tamale, Ghana, to meet the global need for strong health systems. This work is supported by donations totaling more than US$10 million from the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust, Eli Lilly and Company and the Lilly Foundation.
In November, the AMPATH Ghana partnership facilitated a donation of nearly US$5 million in personal protective equipment and COVID-19 test kits from the City of New York to Tamale Teaching Hospital in Ghana.
In December, Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP) Faculty of Medicine and Dell Medical School at The University of Texas Austin signed an Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to launch the AMPATH/MAPAS México partnership.
AMPATH Kenya received a series of great news over the past several months as partners Moi University College of Health Sciences (MUCHS) and Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) were awarded competitively three new grants from the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
