Kenya Public Health ECHO

The Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology, the Indiana University - Indianapolis Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health, and other partners including NCI-Kenya, are collaborating to advance healthcare and public health outcomes through the Project ECHO model. 

This exciting collaborative program welcomes students and professionals across different disciplines interested in a variety of public and population health domains. Inaugural sessions include topics related to cancer care and control.

Project ECHO's revolutionary model provides training and mentorship to transform and sustain health systems where every person has fast access to the highest quality of health care and services to support health and wellness in patients' home communities.

Four principles of the ECHO model:

1. Use technology to leverage scarce resources.
2. Share best practices to reduce disparities.
3. Apply case-based learning to master complexity.
4. Evaluate and monitor outcomes.
