In 2017, with the support of The Mastercard Foundation, Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 and the 카지노게임사이트 of Gondar (UoG) entered a partnership to advance inclusive education for young people with disabilities in Ethiopia and other countries in Africa. 

As part of the partnership, the UoG/Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Mastercard Foundation Scholars program is designed to provide up to 60 of the African university카지노 게임 컬렉션�s students and faculty members the opportunity to pursue graduate training at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s. Now in its fourth year, the program is currently recruiting Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s supervisors for the 2021 cohort of incoming PhD candidates from the 카지노게임사이트 of Gondar.  

Funding for the program is part of a $24.2 million grant from . 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s has been fortunate to benefit from the inclusion of UoG faculty members in our classrooms across campus: in the Health Sciences, Arts and Sciences, Law, and Engineering faculties,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Heather Aldersey, Professor in the School of Rehabilitation Therapy and Scientific Director of the International Centre for the Advancement of Community Based Rehabilitation, which administers the program. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�We would love to see this program continue to cut across disciplines to create a diverse cohort of experts on disability inclusion at the UoG. With only two remaining recruitment cycles for this project, I am hopeful that we can continue to make meaningful matches between applicants and potential supervisors.카지노 게임 컬렉션�  

A rewarding experience 

Faculty members who have supervised current and previous cohorts of Mastercard Foundation Scholars have found it to be a rewarding experience. Jordan Miller, Assistant Professor in the School of Rehabilitation Therapy and Associate Director of the Physical Therapy program at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s, currently supervises two scholars and will welcome a third this fall. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�I카지노 게임 컬렉션�ve learned as much from my students as they have from me, I카지노 게임 컬렉션�m sure,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Dr. Miller. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Working with them has really opened my eyes to new avenues for research and they have enriched my life and research program in many ways.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

Dr. Miller says that through his work with the Ethiopian students, he is building a hub of researchers with cross-cultural expertise in musculoskeletal conditions and pain. He explains that because this field has not been fully developed in Ethiopia, there is the opportunity to help Ethiopian clinicians and researchers avoid some of the mistakes that have been made in North America, such as reliance on imaging and medication for people with musculoskeletal conditions like back pain. 

Mulugeta Chala, one of the students currently working with Dr. Miller, is studying the lived experience of Ethiopians with low back pain and how healthcare providers can better understand patients and their experience and provide treatment primarily through self-management strategies. The end goal is to design health-care programs specifically for the Ethiopian context.  

Mr. Chala 카지노 게임 컬렉션� already an established physiotherapist and educator at the 카지노게임사이트 of Gondar 카지노 게임 컬렉션� says he is pleased with the progress his project is making. 

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Dr. Miller is an amazing person and helpful supervisor who has always been easy to approach and work with,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Mr. Chala. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�He does not push you, but he will always ask questions that help you move forward. I am really happy with where I am at 카지노 게임 컬렉션� he has really helped with designing the project and sticking to a workable timeline.카지노 게임 컬렉션� 

A unique opportunity 

Faculty supervisors may be from any field that would permit a PhD dissertation related to disability in Ethiopia (or Africa more broadly). Currently, Mastercard Foundation fellows are studying in fields as diverse as occupational therapy, engineering, kinesiology and health studies, law, nursing, and rehabilitation sciences at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s.
