Our History

Africa Centre for Health Leadership (ACHL) is a non-profit organization which evolved from the Healthcare Leadership Project in Africa (HELPA), a health work force capacity building project which started in 2003 and became fully incorporated as a non-governmental organization in 2013. ACHL contributes to addressing the healthcare challenges in Africa through strengthening healthcare institutions in public and private sectors to institutionalize transformational and empowering leadership models for result-based delivery of health care services.
