Hi colleagues, my name is Lameck Saka from Malawi, Southern Africa. I am currently studying MSc in Healthcare Management in Malawi. I expect to finish in May 2022. I had initially wanted to study MSc OT but I could not afford it because the program is not available in Malawi and the pandemic affected my prospects of finding scholarships to study abroad. I would like to study PhD in OT at any university recognized by WFOT when I finish my current studies. So please link me to any opportunities available globally.
We are now developing an undergraduate BSc OT program in Malawi. This process has taken a bit long but we are getting closer to the approval of the curriculum at one of the local universities, hopefully early next year. In any case, we shall need volunteer faculty members for the program. We are also currently seeking opportunities for the local OTs to upgrade to masters level to join the faculty. The curriculum has entry level for colleagues with diploma in OT. This creates opportunities for our colleagues in Uganda, Tanzania and part of Nigeria.
