2. Why should my institution join UUKHA?
When a UK institution becomes a member of UUKHA, it gives them the opportunity to share learning and experiences with other member institutions doing similar work perhaps in the same region of Uganda. The institution will also enjoy the timely feedback and updates on collaborative opportunities from the Uganda Ministry of Health.
