| Summary: | The Human Resources for Health Program was launched in Rwanda in 2012 as a seven-year initiative to improve healthcare services and decrease overall dependence on foreign aid. In partnership between U.S. academic institutions and Rwandan education affiliates, nursing resources have become primarily centered on the design and implementation of Rwanda's first Masters of Science in Nursing (MScN) Program at the School of Nursing and Midwifery, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Rwanda, Kigali. The nephrology track consists of seven students with a wealth of clinical and educational experience who will receive the training needed to become advanced, ethical, and capable leaders in the nephrology nursing field. Faculty member William Rosa collaborated with the American Nephrology Nurses Association (ANNA) to provide these students with the online community, continuing education, practice standards, and journal access required to be proficient as graduate nurses through the donations of virtual memberships and copies of necessary texts. This is the University of Rwanda's MScN Nephrology Track story.
