NORDIC MEDICAL PROGRAMME · 08 JULY 2027
Tropical medicine. Applied knowledge. Contextualised training.
NACC is preparing a programme open to doctors and clinical teams from Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland, coordinated from Luanda.
The programme may combine observation, training, case discussion and clinical cooperation in tropical medicine and infectious diseases. Participation will be structured case by case according to specialty, credentials, licensing and confirmation by host institutions.
TROPICAL MEDICINE
A clinical programme built with local teams.
The aim is to bring Nordic doctors and health professionals in Angola together around concrete clinical priorities: infection prevention and control, diagnostics, referral, patient safety and continuing education.
NACC does not presume diagnoses, epidemiological needs, host institutions or outcomes. The final programme will be defined with local professionals and competent entities, respecting clinical autonomy, patient protection and applicable rules.
