EV4GH around the globe

After my medical studies (2001) at Cocody University in Abidjan Côte d’Ivoire, I served as the Director of the Bingerville Humanitarian Hospital (Abidjan) for 10 years. I started my public health career after my MPH from Senghor International University in Alexandria, Egypt (2009). During my internship at MEDES, the French Institute for Space Medicine, I worked on their flagship project SAFE (Satellite for Epidemiology) aimed at using remote sensing data to forecast outbreaks of infectious diseases and reinforce health systems capability to address pandemic and natural disasters. I later worked as International Health advisor for People to People (US). I then furthered my education with a PhD in population health from the University of Ottawa (2020) and extensively did research and interventions for improving MNCH outcomes. I did some research on prostate cancer and it’s unique distribution in certain populational groups in relation to calcium intake. I am currently conducting international research to address systemic public/population health issues.

I am a medical doctor specialized in Public Health, Health Policies and Research in Health Systems and Services by Catholic University in Quito – Ecuador. I’ve worked in administrative management and technical advice for several years, both in non-profit organizations and in government process offices in the public health sector. I’ve experience leading and managing work, research, advisory and health administration teams at the national level. Currently, my areas of interest have been expanded to other fields such as Health Legislation, analysis and evaluation of new sectors and actors in health systems, Gender and medical education, especially in the search for integrated, quality systems with an holistic vision. I am interested in social development and equity as the basis of health systems that facilitate people’s access to care, dignify the human being and guarantee the right to health.
