The College of Health Sciences (CHS) of the University of Dodoma (UDOM) in collaboration with Seed Global Health, Peace Corps and the Benjamin Mkapa Hospital plans to have its 1st Annual International Conference on Public and Global Health on the 16th and 17th of March 2016 at the New Dodoma Hotel in Dodoma Tanzania.
This first conference, Building Sustainability in Public and Global Health, endeavors to bring together working partners from public and global health. We are committed to enabling sustainable public private initiatives that improve delivery of health care in our most vulnerable communities. We want best practices to guide our decision-making in all realms of clinical care, research, education, service and policy. We are committed to recognizing strong national leadership that promotes health and social welfare. UDOM wants to support platforms that help partners convene for dissemination of new policies, programs, clinical care updates and research. We are interested in promoting solutions for integration of new practices and initiatives into local systems and in avoiding bottlenecking of progress at the personal, local and community level.
This conference aims to link nonprofit interests, foundation funding, research partnerships and government resources with communities and with facilities. The conference will also address clinical care updates for providers interested in specialty programming. Re-certification for experienced providers and certificate-bearing training for those in early stages in their career will be conducted through a one day hands on training utilizing the UDOM simulation laboratory and hospital facilities for workshops.
