The Resource Centre

The AMREF Health Resource Centre is Sub-Saharan Africa's biggest. Health practitioners and researchers from around the world can acess both published material and AMREF's own reports

AMREF's great strength

AMREF’s great strength is its ability to realise the African community's potential. A community health worker in Uganda likened AMREF’s technique to that of a knife sharpener: “We were blunt tools in the community until AMREF sharpened us.”

We are commited to Learning

All AMREF projects have a learning objective, and AMREF has a commitment to share that learning with others, within and without the organisation.

Sharing

Sharing what we have learnt from our projects has made it possible for other organisations to replicate what we have done and learnt across the African continent and world wide.
Our health education materials have been used across the globe. We have seen our advice on health policy taken up at community, district, and government levels.
