We successfully held an inception meeting with the Ministry of Health - Uganda and the Makerere University School of Public Health (MakSPH) on May 18, 2026, at the Ministry of Health, supported by the Children's Prize under the ACCESS O2 project.
The meeting brought together representatives from the Ministry of Health, Makerere University, and OxyCare Uganda to discuss project implementation, coordination, technical oversight, and impact evaluation strategies.
Under the ACCESS O2 Project, the Ministry of Health will provide oversight and technical support, while Makerere University will lead the impact evaluation to assess the project’s feasibility, effectiveness, and contribution toward strengthening access to medical oxygen services.
This collaboration marks an important milestone in improving oxygen systems, strengthening healthcare delivery, and increasing access to life-saving oxygen therapy for children under-5 and other vulnerable patients in remote and underserved communities.
We appreciate the commitment and partnership of all stakeholders as we work together to build sustainable and equitable oxygen systems in Uganda.
