We proudly congratulates our Human Resources Manager, Mr Ronald Lephodisa, on his appointment to the board of the Citizen Entrepreneurial Development Agency (CEDA).

CEDA is a key Government of Botswana institution established to promote citizen economic empowerment by providing financial and technical support to develop sustainable, citizen-owned businesses.

Mr Lephodisaโ€™s wealth of experience in human resources will undoubtedly contribute to advancing CEDAโ€™s mission of fostering entrepreneurship and driving economic growth in Botswana.

His appointment also reflects how BHP continues to nurture and contribute talent that serves in different capacities across the country, shaping institutions and strengthening national development.

We are immensely proud of this remarkable achievement and confident that he will make a meaningful impact at national level.

The Botswana Harvard Health Partnership (BHP) has dedicated the period from 20โ€“29 April 2026 to conducting Compliance Refresher Trainings led by the Support Services Department across all its studies, departments, and research teams.

The training series kicked off with the Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) and continues with the rest of the teams scheduled on different days throughout the period.

These sessions provide an important opportunity for staff to pause, reflect, and realign with the standards, policies, and procedures that guide our work.

More than just a routine exercise, compliance is central to ensuring accountability, protecting the institution, and upholding the trust of the communities we serve, as well as the funders who support our research.

Through these engagements, BHP continues to strengthen its commitment to operational excellence, ethical practice, and doing things right, every time.

BHP Training & Development Manager, Prof. Catherine Koofhethile, delivered an oral presentation titled โ€œViral Reservoirs in Adolescents & Young Adults Living with HIV in Southern Africaโ€ at the Keystone Symposia held from April 16โ€“19, 2026 in Breckenridge, Colorado, USA.

In addition to her presentation, she also contributed to a panel discussion on health equity, adding valuable insights to global conversations shaping the future of HIV research and care. Prof. Khei, as she is affectionately known, is also the Principal Investigator for Phodiso Study.

Moments like these continue to position BHP at the forefront of impactful research and thought leadership on the global stage. ๐ŸŒโœจ

The InterCARE Statin Sub-Study held a stakeholder engagement meeting today, April 14 , 2026, at the University of Botswana Centre for Continuing Education (CCE).

The meeting introduced this important research initiative, which explores the integration of statin therapy into HIV and hypertension care for people living with HIV aged 40โ€“75 who also have high blood pressure. The study also aims to develop a set of implementation strategies for integrating statin therapy into routine HIV and hypertension care.

The other study objective will be to measure the implementation outcomes of the statin therapy among people living with HIV and hypertension. By incorporating statin (medication that lowers cholesterol and reduces inflammation), the study seeks to help prevent heart attacks and strokes, ultimately reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease.

Stakeholders also engaged on proposed implementation strategies, including strengthening patient and community-based support systems, developing a statin-focused curriculum and mentoring for healthcare providers, and adapting HIV care electronic health records to support electronic statin prescriptions. These discussions will inform a comprehensive implementation research framework.

This collaborative study is led by the University of Botswana in partnership with the Botswana Harvard Health Partnership and global collaborators.

Together, we are advancing integrated care solutions to improve the long-term health outcomes of people living with HIV.

Strengthening Data Protection at BHP

On 8 March 2026, the Botswana Harvard Health Partnership hosted a training session on the Botswana Data Protection Act (2024), facilitated by NDADI LAW FIRM

The training brought together key teams across the organisation, including Executive Management, Regulatory, Data Management & Software Engineering, Information Technology, Laboratory Quality Assurance, and Communications, reflecting a collective commitment to responsible data practices.

The session was designed to help BHP better understand and align with the Botswana Data Protection Act, with particular focus on provisions related to data protection in research.

As a health research institution handling sensitive personal and clinical data, protecting information is more than a legal obligation, it is fundamental to maintaining trust, upholding ethical standards, and safeguarding the communities we serve.

This training equipped our teams with practical knowledge to strengthen compliance and ensure data is handled securely and responsibly.

Commemorating World TB Day in Tlokweng

Yesterday, as part of World TB Day, our Botswana Sexual Reproductive Health Initiative (BSRHI) team joined other health partners at the TB Commemoration hosted by the Tlokweng District Council. Accompanied by our Community Engagement and Stakeholder Relations Coordinator, Mr. Ernest Moseki, the team engaged with the Tlokweng community, sharing information on TB as well as our ongoing sexual and reproductive health (SRH) research.

BSRHI conducts studies aimed at improving SRH outcomes among women and adolescent girls, focusing on pregnancy planning and prevention, HIV and contraception, STI diagnosis and treatment, safe abortion care, and cervical cancer prevention. The event was a chance not only to raise TB awareness but also to advance health in general and provide the community with important health information.
