🌍 Collaborative Planning for 2026 🌍
With 2026 planning underway, AHF convened a strategic meeting with the Ministry of Health (MOH), partner health facilities, and the Lesotho Mounted Police Service (LMPS).
The purpose of this meeting was to ensure alignment with the Ministry’s strategic direction and priority areas, and to collectively map out key focus areas based on MOH’s plans.
✨ The meeting was highly successful, with an impressive turnout led by Dr. Maama, Director of Public Health Services, supported by DHMTs from Maseru, Mafeteng, Thaba-Tseka, and Berea, Public Health Nurses, as well as Managers and Nurses-in-Charge from AHF-supported health facilities.
In her opening remarks, Ms. Nthoesele Shoeshoe Letoao, AHF Country Program Manager, warmly welcomed attendees and expressed appreciation for the unwavering support from MOH and partners. She also gave a background on AHF’s global mission and its operations in Lesotho.
📊 The AHF Medical Director shared program performance updates for the flagship Katlehong Clinic and 22 supported sites, highlighting successes and areas for improvement.
💡 In her address, Dr. Maama emphasized the importance of an integrated approach to HIV and TB management within the primary healthcare system, noting the burden of TB and identifying areas where AHF could further support the Ministry.
This collaborative session created a platform to identify gaps, strengthen coordination, and reinforce the shared commitment to providing comprehensive HIV and TB treatment, prevention, care, and support services for the Basotho people.
🤝 The meeting marked not only a successful start to 2026 planning but also a renewed step toward a stronger, more impactful partnership with the Ministry of Health.
