Nairobi, Kenya – On 15th July 2025, Unicaf and the Kenya Association of Private Hospitals (KAPH) officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), marking the beginning of a strategic partnership aimed at empowering healthcare professionals across Kenya through access to quality higher education.
The signing ceremony took place at Unicaf’s offices in Nairobi and was attended by senior representatives from both organisations. The agreement highlights a shared commitment to strengthening Kenya’s private healthcare sector by offering KAPH members access to internationally recognised degree programmes through Unicaf’s flexible and affordable learning model.
Speaking at the event, Winnie Rachael, Country Manager of Unicaf in Kenya, emphasised the importance of capacity building in the health sector:
“Unicaf is proud to collaborate with KAPH to open up access to internationally recognised degree programmes. This partnership is an opportunity to build capacity within the healthcare sector by equipping professionals with the knowledge and credentials needed to lead, innovate, and drive impact.”
Unicaf, the leading provider of quality online higher education, partners with reputable universities in the UK and Africa to deliver Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctoral degree programmes online. With this partnership, KAPH members will be eligible for generous scholarships and flexible payment plans, enabling them to advance their careers without pausing their professional responsibilities.
Representing KAPH, Dr Joan Osoro, Executive Member of the Association, shared her optimism:
“This is a great opportunity for our members and the wider healthcare community. Education is one of the most powerful tools for strengthening systems and improving service delivery. We look forward to seeing our members grow through this initiative.”
The collaboration between Unicaf and KAPH represents a significant step toward improving healthcare outcomes in Kenya by investing in the professional development of those working on the frontlines of care.
