With the Ghana Ministry of Health eLearning Secretariat, the U. S. Agency for International Development’s flagship Maternal and Child Survival Program (MCSP), led by Jhpiego, has been deploying an eLearning platform called Moodle to midwifery and nursing schools across the country to great success.
USAID, Jhpiego and the Ethiopian Midwifery Association have worked to strengthen the capacity of midwifery teaching institutions and increase the number of graduating students in midwifery by promoting the profession. Without these efforts, the current status of the midwifery profession would have been difficult to reach.
The USAID-funded Strengthening Human Resources for Health (HRH) Project has been supporting health sciences universities and colleges in Ethiopia to improve the quality of education for anesthetists and other health providers, including developing faculty skills, strengthening infrastructure, revising curriculum, improving clinical education, establishing a quality improvement system, and initiating gender transformative activities.
