From Our Members
My experience has been amazing. ADHSN has created a platform for so much knowledge acquisition specifically in the digital health space. From webinars to mentorship programs, it has truly been an enriching experience.

My experience in ADHSN has been great .I have been able to connect and network with other members other university, had a chance to join debates for inter-university addressing health innovations . I also participated in AI webinar training and mentorship programs which was very insightful.
Immaculate Bett
Kenyatta University
It has been really interesting and very enlightening. It opened my eyes to many possibilities through digital health to address inequities within the health sector and its multidimensional approach to global health. The Trivia nights were always fun and also the debate was something that forced me to think and read more about a field outside my scope of studies. ADHSN also shared a lot of opportunities to connect with other African Students.
