Rwandan doctors to get scholarships

BY EDDIE MUKAAYA of The New Times

"A Canadian health support organisation Healthy Kids International (HKI) is to help Rwandan doctors acquire specialized training in child health.

HKI launched its support programme on Saturday at Kigali Serena Hotel pending signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Health this week. If signed, the deal will result in 10 such scholarships being offered by HKI under the funding of One X One.

Speaking at the launch of Healthy Kids International Fellowship Programme, Michael w. O’Mahoney, the president of HKI, said the programme will address the shortage of paediatricians in Rwanda."
