Working in partnership
The work of the KEMRI-Wellcome Trust Research Programme is based on partnerships. On an international stage, key researchers hold academic positions at a number of institutions including the universities of Oxford and Warwick , the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Imperial college , and the Institute of Child Health in London. Researchers have established numerous collaborations with colleagues in the UK, USA and elsewhere. In Kilifi, the Programme is embedded within Kilifi District Hospital, building its research programmes around local medical infrastructure and contributing to healthcare delivery. Researchers are also committed to engaging with the local community, to discuss their research and why it is being carried out.
