University of Abuja Signs MoU, Pioneers Diabetes Studies in Africa
The University of Abuja has entered into a partnership with Diabetes Africa, a network of health professionals, to establish a top-class educational programme on Diabetes Education that will improve the quality of care offered to diabetes patients across Africa. The UofA is setting the pace in establishing this programme.
The partnership which will also address the dearth of Diabetologists and other health care professionals who play a critical role in the study and management of diabetes, would lead to the award of Master’s degree in Diabetes Education by the University of Abuja with support from Diabetes Africa in the form of experience, expertise and fundraising.
Vice-Chancellor Professor Abdul-Rasheed Na’Allah, while commending the initiative, said, “I express total support for this collaboration. I hope it is going to be a mark in the training in this area of professionalism, better knowledge management and treatment in Africa.”
