Why is EPHTI necessary?

The health challenges in Ethiopia are staggering. Imagine living in a country where one in eight people will face severe hunger this year, where one in six children will not see their fifth birthday, where the life expectancy is only 41 years. Imagine further that the most common illnesses and deaths could be easily prevented or treated, yet four out of every 10 people have no access to health care. For the people of Ethiopia, this is reality.
 
Because the biggest hurdle to better health in Ethiopia is the lack of access to health personnel, EPHTI's mission is to build a team of qualified health care workers across the country, especially in underserved rural populations.
