Investigating current health education experiences and needs of Kenyan secondary school students and how they align with current secondary school health education programmes

During this Fellowship, Nancy will undertake an MA in Education, Health Promotion and International Development at University College London, Institute of Education. She aims to explore the extent to which Kenyan secondary school health education practice meets the health needs of students. The study will document health education experiences and needs and compare the congruence between the health education curriculum, the curriculum roll-out experiences of teachers and students, and the health education needs of students. Nancy will be working with Alun Davies and Dr Caroline Jones at the KEMRI-Wellcome Trust Research Programme.

This grant was awarded under the scheme's previous name of Master's Fellowships in Public Health and Tropical Medicine.
