HISTORY

Indiana University began partnering with Moi University and Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in Eldoret, Kenya in 1990 – the same year Moi University welcomed its first class of 40 medical students. The success of this partnership and its shared mission led to other North American universities joining their efforts, and in 2001 AMPATH and the AMPATH Consortium were officially created.
