Welche Bedeutung hat die Digitalisierung für Deine Karriere?

It allows for healthcare education to be accessible to anyone in Africa. I with one other female funder are building an EdTech platform to do exactly this. Our hope is to increase the number of healthcare workers across Africa while providing an affordable tertiary education alternative.
