Global Health Alliance began its transformative journey by delivering vital medical equipment to Gol-Nugal Maternity Hospital, supported by the generous commitment of the Somali diaspora worldwide and communities within Somalia. This initial investment laid the foundation for our comprehensive approach to healthcare system strengthening.
Since then, GHA has trained over 130 healthcare professionals through international-level programs in Garowe, demonstrating our commitment to building local capacity with global standards of excellence. Our impact has expanded significantly through targeted initiatives: we’ve empowered 87 female health workers at the University of Bossaso through DynaMed training, supported 35 female students from Puntland State University, reached 55 female health students from Hajji Abdi Institute, and engaged 60 health students from Red Sea University.
These numbers represent more than statistics—they reflect our commitment to centering women’s leadership in healthcare transformation. By prioritizing the training and empowerment of female healthcare professionals, we’re investing in those who understand their communities’ needs most intimately and are positioned to create lasting change.
Our approach spans from essential equipment delivery to comprehensive capacity-building, ensuring that healthcare improvements are both immediate and sustainable. Each trained professional becomes a catalyst for change within their community, extending our impact far beyond direct interventions.
From these foundational efforts, GHA continues leading the way in building a healthier Somalia through community-centered solutions, diaspora solidarity, and the recognition that sustainable healthcare transformation must be led by those who live and work within the communities they serve.
