CHAK, with support from the Novo Nordisk Foundation, and in collaboration with several partners, is initiating a new phase of the Partnership for Education of Health Professionals (PEP) Programme which will scale up nationwide efforts to equip health workers with the skills needed to prevent and manage cardiometabolic diseases.
Kenya is facing a double burden of disease with rising cardiometabolic conditions alongside persistent infectious diseases.
In response to these health challenges, the PEP Programme will drive stronger, smarter health training, ensuring Kenya’s health workforce is ready to meet today’s evolving health challenges.
The four-year programme is supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation with a grant of USD9.4 million, distributed among the project consortia partners.
