Faculty & Research in Namibia
Tufts University and the University of Namibia (UNAM), as part of their ongoing partnership, developed an innovative training program to improve the health of populations. Through funding from NIH’s Fogarty International Center, we are able to offer a program that will train new investigators from UNAM in the area of Nutrition and Metabolism in HIV. The main focus of this training will be providing relevant information to understand and improve the nutritional and metabolic health in Namibia, where high rates of HIV and poverty co-exist. After completion of this training, trainees will have the ability to translate the results of their Nutrition and Metabolism research to program and policy development in Namibia.
