The County Government of Kisumu has entered into a strategic partnership with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Centre (UPMC) and Maseno University to strengthen health systems in the county.
Through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed at a ceremony in Kisumu on Thursday, the three institutions seek to establish a Healthcare and Research Consortium aimed at enhancing maternal health, specialist training, and research.
The initiative will bring together key institutions, including the University of Pittsburgh, UPMC, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching & Referral Hospital (JOOTRH), Maseno University, and the Kisumu County Department of Health, to focus on critical areas such as maternal health, cancer treatment, and infectious diseases.
