In sub-Saharan Africa, less than 25% of higher education students pursue STEM fields. This limited engagement contributes to a shortage of qualified professionals, hindering economic growth and innovation. Despite efforts to increase the health workforce, Africa faces a projected shortage of 6.1 million health workers by 2030. Paradoxically, some regions experience unemployment or underemployment among health professionals due to factors such as inadequate distribution and resource constraints.

The UPSKILL Ripple Effect not only addresses these challenges by enhancing the skills, resources, and opportunities available to Health and STEM professionals but also strengthens the STEM pipeline by offering sustained professional support through our global community. By connecting professionals to a worldwide network of mentors, resources, and collaborators, we empower them to overcome barriers, advance their careers, and contribute to innovative solutions for local and global challenges.

This approach reduces unemployment rates among graduates while ensuring their expertise leads to improved healthcare outcomes, technological advancements, and economic growth
