We work with Samaritan's Purse, SIMPACT, INMED, and AIM-UK among others. For East African institutions, we do local arrangements through [email protected]. If you are planning to come with an organization, they will reach out to our coordinator and help with your travel and housing logistics.

If you are coming from overseas, we understand you may want to venture outside of our corner of Kenya. The head of your department will be able to help you understand the expectations and schedule, but we generally recommend you go on safari either at the beginning or the end of your rotation to allow continuity of care for your rotation and for you to integrate better with the team. Make sure you communicate this clearly with the person setting your schedule in the department.
