From 18–20 May, TASIWA trained 25 healthcare providers from Sekou-Toure Regional Referral Hospital as part of the Securing Health, Improving Lives project. Implemented in collaboration with Baylor Foundation Tanzania and funded by the Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation, the training aimed to strengthen the management of Sickle Cell Disease and ensure that 400 children benefiting from health insurance through the project receive quality, appropriate, and timely healthcare.
In addition, parents and caregivers received entrepreneurship education and were connected to groups to strengthen their financial capacity and promote sustainable support for their children's health insurance beyond the project period. Through this integrated approach, TASIWA and its partners continue to strengthen healthcare services, empower families, reduce preventable deaths, and improve the quality of life for children and young people living with Sickle Cell Disease.
