A hectic schedule and lack of convenient internet access have kept me from posting since arriving. Although the official conference ended Wednesday night, there have been additional sessions over the past two days. Some highlights included developing an International NGO Code of Conduct for Health Systems Strengthening (paying tribute to the sometimes detrimental impact international NGOs can have on the health care worker shortage or situation in many developing countries) and hearing the experiences of the Strathmore Business School in Nairobi, Kenya in developing health management training programs. With 1000+ participants here in one place our research and learning has really been at maximum capacity and efficiency!! It was without a doubt a great decision to spend the week here and connect with so many interesting individuals.
This morning I also had the chance to leave the conference "bubble" and experience some realities of downtown Kampala... markets, rolexes, bora-boras, and more. I'm racing against a low battery so next report later (perhaps from Durham!)
