As part of Worldwide Week at Harvard, join us for a virtual lecture highlighting the pilot implementation and evaluation of a community health worker training program in Kenya. This virtual session will share key takeaways from the Kenya Project and explore broader implications for strengthening health systems through training and workforce innovation.

The Kenya Project was spearheaded by Dr. Nithya Ramesh, a board-certified public health dentist and graduate of HSDM’s Oral Health Policy and Epidemiology DMSc and Dental Public Health residency programs.

With more than a decade of experience in public health practice, Dr. Ramesh is a skilled educator and researcher whose work focuses on global oral health policy, workforce development, and competency-based education. She currently serves as Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Academic Director of Brown University’s online MPH program, where she provides curricular leadership and oversight of academic affairs.
