From Kings College London news, their Global Health centre has been awarded a grant to improve health professions education in Sierra Leone.
The partnership will draw on the expertise of staff from across King’s Health Partners to work with staff at COMAHS to develop revised curricula for all programmes, provide training in modern teaching methods, equip classrooms and develop proposals for new training programmes. This will involve visits by medical, nursing and pharmacy educators to Sierra Leone to conduct needs assessments and hold curriculum workshops, as well as provide distance mentoring and support.
The project will also use an online learning platform called MedicineAfrica
