The Ameca Trust

Homepage

The fundamental ethos of The AMECA Trust is our belief that healthcare in Africa can only be effectively addressed by an improvement in both the training and the retention of healthcare professionals. We also firmly believe that our initiatives should be sustainable over the long term, rather than provide a well intentioned but unsustainable “quick fix” approach.

AMECA support the delivery of sustainable healthcare initiatives in African countries.

We work in partnership with professionals, local organisations and local communities to ensure that these initiatives are focussed, relevant and sustainable over the long term. 

Our Charitable objectives are as follows:

• The establishment of medical training facilities in Africa.
• Donation of Bursary Awards at Nottingham University Medical, Nursing and Physiotherapy Schools to fund Medical, Nursing and Physiotherapy electives in African hospitals.
• The promotion of final year medical, nursing and physiotherapy elective and graduate placements in African countries for students at Nottingham University and at other universities.
• Provision of affordable and sustainable healthcare and healthcare education for local African communities.
