Global Health Workforce Program Sharing and Learning Event

Every great health system is built on the strength of its workforce; the doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and community health workers who dedicate their lives to saving others. Over the past years, the Global Health Workforce Program (GHWP) has been a beacon of collaboration, innovation, and transformation, ensuring that frontline health workers are better trained, better supported, and better equipped to serve their communities.

Last week, the journey came full circle with the Virtual Sharing and Learning Event, hosted by the UK Grant Managers - Global Health Partnerships (formerly THET), and co-hosted by the in-country consultants and grant managers in Nigeria (DUCIT BLUE SOLUTIONS), Ghana, and Kenya and in collaboration with the Ministries of Health of the 3 participating countries.

Funded by the UK Department of Health and Social Care, and managed by Global Health Partnerships (formerly THET), the GHWP has supported Health Partnerships to strengthen the health workforce in Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria, to build stronger and resilient health systems for the future.

Key Highlights from the Event
🔹 Goodwill messages was delivered by Ben Simms-CEO GHP, Dr.Kamil Shoretire- Department of Health Planning Research and Statistics, Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare Nigeria, the representatives from Kenya and Ghana, the World Health Organization representative from Ghana.
🔹 HPs shared how GHWP has improved training, mentorship, and health worker retention in the various various geographies where they implement the programme.
🔹 Presentations demonstrated how targeted interventions are closing workforce gaps in maternal health, surgery, pharmacy, and community health.
🔹 Insights from Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria emphasised that while contexts differ, the challenges of health workforce shortages, continuous professional development, and systems strengthening are universal and best solved through partnerships.
🔹 Several HPs showcased new approaches, including e-learning modules, peer-to-peer exchange models, and the integration of digital solutions for delivering health workforce trainings, and monitoring impact.

Represented by our Founding Partner, Estelle Onyekachi Mbadiwe MPharm, MSc, we had the honor of co-hosting this milestone event and spotlighting the Nigerian journey and ensuring that partnerships not only thrived but delivered meaningful, sustainable results. Pharm Estelle’s favorite quote from Nelson Mandela "it always seems impossible until it’s done", captures the amazing journey to deliver on the successes seen with the Global Health Workforce Programme.

Transforming disability care for children with Spina Bifida in Nigeria through local initiatives and National engagement

At the recently concluded Medical Women Association of Nigeria Conference (31st Aug – 3rd Sept 2025, in Kaduna), one of our Health Partnerships, Festus Fajemilo Foundation (FFF), Presented their work, spotlighting a decade of transformative work improving the lives of children, young people, and adults with spina bifida across Nigeria.

Through the SLIF (Saving Lives! Improving Futures) Project in collaboration with Shine UK, FFF has:
✨ Established continence care clinics in 11 facilities across 9 States in 5 Geopolitical zones of Nigeria.
✨ Trained 120 healthcare workers and empowered 5 nurse leaders to drive sustainability.
✨ Supported 329 children and young people to access life-saving continence care.
✨ Deployed 11 outreach workers, carrying out 240 visits to improve family support, hygiene, and care practices.

The results are clear; reduced Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), better school attendance, improved self-esteem, stronger peer support networks, and real improvements in quality of life.

FFF’s recommendations now call for continence care to be integrated into national health frameworks, more clinics and outreach services, strengthened local leadership, and improved access to essential supplies.

This inspiring model shows that with training, advocacy, and leadership development, sustainable change in resource-limited settings is possible, and lives can be saved.

The project is funded by the Department of Health and Social Care, UK and managed by THET (Tropical Health and Education Trust) UK with Ducit Blue Solutions as the Local Grant Manager in Nigeria.
