About National Open University of Nigeria:

The National Open University of Nigeria is a Federal Open and Distance Learning institution, the first of its kind in the West African sub-region. It is Nigeria's largest tertiary institution in terms of student number and is popularly referred to as NOUN. NOUN aims to develop in five major areas. They are to:

• Enhance student enrolment in programmes being offered in the university
• Create demand-driven academic programmes relevant to the needs of the society
• Create linkages with other universities and industrial concerns
• Deploy the use of innovative technologies in the delivery of her operational services

About Nigeria:

RocApply invites you to study in Nigeria, Africa’s largest country in population. Boasting of being one of the most urbanised countries in the continent, Nigeria is one of the places non-African people think of whenever Africa is mentioned. It comes as no doubt that due to this, favourable advantage, Nigeria is one of the most visited places in Africa both for tourist reasons and also for migration purposes. Known as one of the major powers in the continent and the world at large, Nigeria is a coveted place to visit and experience the diversified culture of the country. International students will get the opportunity to gain a more global mindset about the world than when studying in their home country.

About the city:

Lagos, Nigeria’s largest city, sprawls inland from the Gulf of Guinea across Lagos Lagoon. Victoria Island, the financial center of the metropolis, is known for its beach resorts, boutiques and nightlife. To the north, Lagos Island is home to the National Museum Lagos, displaying cultural artifacts and craftworks. Nearby is Freedom Park, once a colonial-era prison and now a major venue for concerts and public events.

Webinar: Health workforce heterogeneity in LMICs - conceptual and practical considerations

25 April 2024, 1:00 pm–2:00 pm

The health workforce in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is deeply heterogeneous, manifesting varying levels of official legitimacy and informality of practice, as well as diverse, overlapping systems of knowledge and variably specialised cadres of providers. Coordinating this mixed workforce calls for governance approaches responsive to the opportunities and challenges presented by this diversity. The panellists will discuss conceptual issues and practical considerations around managing health workforce heterogeneity in LMICs.
