HAVANA, Cuba. Officials from the Cuban embassy in Tanzania said a new program to train doctors on the insular territory of Zanzibar is underway and that there are excellent perspectives for its development.
A working visit made to that territory of the United Republic of Tanzania by Counselor Dionisio Molina and Second Secretary Miriam Viamontes verified the high academic level of Cuban professors and the interest shown by the 39 young people in Zanzíbar toward their studies.
The tour ended with a visit to the remote island of Pemba in the Indian Ocean, where nine Cuban health professionals are offering their services and are now making preparations to have the new doctor training program ready with an initial enrolment of 15 students.
The medical cooperation provided by Cuba is unprecedented in the impoverished island of Pemba, the local authorities told the visiting diplomats, the Cuban Foreign Ministry’s web site reports.
Similar perspectives are opened in the continental territory of Tanzania, where the introduction of a program to train health professionals advances.
At present, 26 Cuban volunteer workers are offering their services in Tanzania, where special emphasis has been made in the training of human resources, as a way to support the effort of the African nation to satisfy the demands of its population in the sphere of public health
services.
