A team of practioners in the field of youth support and mental health from Region Västerbotten visited Homa Bay County, Kenya in mid-September 2024. The learnings from this exchange were important.
A team of practioners from the health sector in Homa Bay County have also been provided with an opportunity to learn about the Swedish system and about how different categories of practioners work for youth health and mental health.
The program includes visits and conversations in Umeå, Lycksele and Vilhelmina during October 6th-11th.
Activities for dissemination of results will be carried out 2025.
The partnership is funded by Swedish International Centre for Local Democracy (ICLD). I am contracted by Center for Rural Medicine, Region Västerbotten as a senior advisor and project manager.
