IntraHealth focuses on training for Kenyan health care workers

In this post on IntraHealth's "Global Health Blog," Pape Gaye, president and CEO of IntraHealth, discusses the organization's commitment to providing quality training to Kenyan health care workers made at this year's Clinton Global Initiative meeting. "We and our partners will use information technologies designed or adapted in Kenya to create and distribute training programs to Kenyan health workers. We are especially focusing on health workers who provide much-needed services in the remote Kenyan regions of Kitui and Kisumu," Gaye writes. Noting that "one billion people in this world who may never come in contact with a health provider in their entire lives," he continues, "I hope that by making the information and the training available where it's needed the most, we are giving a chance to these people, a chance to get in contact with and receive services from a health worker" (10/9).
