MATOKEO YA KIDATO CHA PILI 2022/2023. BOFYA HAPA KUTAZAMA

The Mwele Malecela Mentorship Programme 2023 for Women in Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs)

encourages mid-career African women to take the lead and excel in the fight against NTD at the national and international levels. In the WHO African region, the Universal health coverage/Communicable and non-communicable illnesses (UHC/UCN) cluster works to combat NTDs and other Tropical and Vector-Borne Diseases (TVD) Programs. The American Society for Medicine, Hygiene, and Tropical Medicine, The END Fund, and WHO/AFRO are working together to oversee this program (ASMTH). The MMM program will offer mentoring, training, and networking opportunities to cohorts of women from 2023 to 2030 over the course of two years, in line with the Global NTD Roadmap.

Objectives

Using an innovative gender-intentional approach, the MMM program aims to increase the overall coverage, effectiveness and impact of NTD interventions by ensuring the program support for women to overcome gender barriers in access to leadership while also acquiring skills and resources that enable them to be influential leaders and agents of change. The program integrates a gender lens into the design and implementation of the critical program components, including (a) Mentorship Program Design & Selection of Awardees, (b) Mentorship Program Implementation and (c) Mentorship Program Mgt., Review, and Evaluation.
