Facilitating the Contributions of Diaspora Health Professionals – Towards Implementation of the National Health Sector Strategic Plan 2010-2015 in Sierra Leone

This project intends to provide technical support to the government of Sierra Leone in developing a national diaspora mobilization strategy for the health sector.

IOM will 1) support mapping of human recourses gaps in health sector training institutions in Sierra Leone as well as the available human resources among Sierra Leoneans living in the diaspora and; 2) develop a strategy to have Sierra Leonean health professionals in the diaspora placed in selected health care learning institutions in Sierra Leone to support the implementation of this component of the national response.
