In April, we had one week-long in-person meetings at Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital.The meetings focused on consolidating plans for key project activities, including the finalisation and distribution of the printed guidelines, the integration of knowledge-check questions into the app, and the dissemination of the developed IEC (Information, Education and Communication) materials.
During the visit, the team also met with Professor Mac Mallewa, Vice Chancellor of Kamuzu University of Health Sciences, one of the partner institutions of EKC Global Child Health.
