Launched in 2012, the FUNZOKenya project is supporting the Government of Kenya’s efforts to make dramatic changes to its health worker education and training systems.
“Funzo” means training in Kiswahili, and the project aims to work across the public and private sectors to strengthen preservice education of health workers, improve access to training for existing health workers, and link professional licensure to ongoing professional development. These linkages are critical to ensuring quality health care.
