Past Activities
Addis Ababa Partnership in Infectious Diseases
(AMP-ID)
In 2009, a new partnership was forged between the Department of Medicine of AAU and members of the division of Infectious Diseases at 91社区, to implement a post-graduate sub-specialty training program in Infectious Diseases (ID) for Ethiopian physicians. This program was initially supported through charitable and industry donations, until funding was obtained from the Research Institute 91社区 Health Centre, to include a research component. This led to a decision to formalize the partnership under the auspices of 91社区 Global Health Programs, the JD Maclean Centre for Tropical Diseases and Addis Ababa University College of Health Sciences. The partnership has been named 鈥淎ddis Ababa 鈥� 91社区 Partnership in Infectious Diseases鈥�, or AMP-ID.
