Introduction

The African Health OER Network seeks to enable participants to develop, adapt, and share health education resources to augment limited human and other resources in the health sector and impact positively on overall health provision in Africa and beyond. The mission of the Network is to advance health education in Africa by using open educational resources (OER) to share knowledge, address curriculum gaps, and support communities around health education. Our aim is to strengthen the intellectual and policy infrastructure within and between African institutions in order to grow a vibrant Network. Find out more.
