SwissABILITY aims to train at least 10 orthopedic technicians at KMTC – Kenya Medical Training College in Nairobi, teaching innovative low-cost techniques suitable for the most vulnerable African context.

This project seeks to enhance the professional skills of the technicians, enabling them to provide accessible and quality prosthetic solutions to a population that often lacks access to such services.

During the training week, new prostheses will be donated to 10 selected patients, allowing them to regain mobility. The training represents a crucial step towards a more inclusive and sustainable healthcare system in Kenya.
