“Developing countries are faced with a high burden of tropical diseases. While doctors in these countries have hands-on experience of managing these diseases, they are unable to develop their expertise because of high costs associated with a full-time post-graduate course and limited opportunities to pursue the same. MSF has initiated the Global Health and Humanitarian Medicine programme to address the need for a low-cost, part-time programme for mid-career doctors. The programme aims to provide high quality training in tropical medicine and public health in order to improve patient and programmatic care in areas where it is needed most”
