This programme is developing an internet-based, interactive education and training course for health professionals in Africa. A pilot module in malaria is being developed with support from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The report contains an extensive review of health care training and internet connectivity in each of the Anglophone sub-Saharan Africa countries, and also provides an extensive review of internet connectivity in the region.
