Going forward, Medics.Academy will be working with the organisation to deliver tailored education programmes that can drive improvements in skills and diversify the country’s healthcare workforce. Dr. Senayit Beyene, the President of EMeWA commented: “The project will help deliver quality and affordable learning opportunities which are both accredited and acceptable both locally and internationally. It will also create the platform to establish strong and practical networks and connections around the world for collaborations and mentorship. Our ultimate goal is to develop a learning community that acknowledges and builds on the different skill sets of its members at all levels. I am confident that Medics.Academy’s pioneering education platform will help to plug this gap in a sustainable manner.”
Empowering women in health leadership is a core strategic focus for Medics.Academy. The company supported the establishment of the Women in Healthcare Leadership (WIHL) programme to increase opportunity for representative leadership in the UK’s NHS. The programme has since expanded overseas, supporting healthcare professionals and building a supportive platform that champions inclusivity at leadership level. Dr Johann Malawana, Chief Executive Officer at Medics.Academy, said: “Over the last four years, we have sought to formalise various initiatives, to promote diversity of thought and ideas and help to create a global community of healthcare leaders of the future. Inclusivity is absolutely key to leadership and this collaboration is reflective of our long-term strategy to foster frontline innovation and increase women’s representation in healthcare globally. Our overall objective is to work towards removing gender and other barriers, to pursuing leadership roles in Healthcare.”
