Behind the Scenes at a Kampala Clinic

This post was written by Evelyn Powery, a Fuqua MBA 2015 graduate. While at Fuqua, she served as student co-chair for CASE i3 and as a CASE Fellow. Prior to Fuqua, Evelyn served in the Philippines as a Peace Corps volunteer, teaching high school English and training Filipino teachers and principals. Evelyn's internship was supported by the Innovations in Healthcare, the Social Entrepreneurship Accelerator at Duke (SEAD), and CASE’s Summer Internship Fund (SIF).

As the sun rises in Kampala, Uganda, Zaina’s toddler daughter Shanita isn’t feeling well. Today Zaina plans to take her to the local clinic. I worked with LifeNet International this summer, which provides medical and management training, pharmaceutical delivery and growth financing to a franchise of clinics to help clinics build capacity.

LifeNet has operated in Burundi since 2012 and expanded into Uganda this year with 10 health center partners.

To get a glimpse into LifeNet’s work, let’s step into Zaina’s world as she takes her daughter into the local health clinic.

To read more about Evelyn’s adventure in Uganda with LifeNet, check out her blog or follow her on Twitter.
