Back to My Roots: Transforming Nigeria’s Healthcare System
A bold, scalable solution to Nigeria’s healthcare workforce crisis.
Nigeria faces a critical brain drain crisis, with nearly 50% of its trained doctors now practicing abroad. The African Redeployment of Knowledge (A-ReDoK) Programme turns this challenge into an opportunity: mobilising diaspora health professionals to volunteer one month annually in Nigerian hospitals. This initiative strengthens healthcare delivery, builds local capacity through structured training, and advocates for long-term retention policies.
Why A-ReDoK Matters
- Addresses Nigeria’s healthcare workforce crisis head-on.
- Combines patient care with structured peer training.
- Leverages diaspora expertise for systemic change.
- Aligns with CSR pillars: Health, Education, Youth Empowerment, Community Development.
- Supports cultural reconnection and sustainability.
