A structured approach to effective mentoring of women health researchers in Africa

CONCLUSIONS: Mentorship programs can help over time to bridge the gender gaps within Africa as well as the gaps between African-led research and the rest of the world while making a meaningful contribution to enhancing the quality, diversity, and productivity of researchers. A mentoring program such as the HIGHER Women MPP can be improved by leveraging local and international partners to foster the mentoring program's sustainability, scalability, and expanded reach.FUNDING: World Health Organization's Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (WHO/TDR) and Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC Canada).PMID:38322745 | PMC:PMC10630044 | DOI:10.4314/gmj.v56i3s.3
