Sudan: World’s Newest Nation Would Start Almost From Scratch
(McClatchy.com)
November 22, 2010 - South Sudan
Fascinating article link below on McClathchy.com about the upcoming referendum in January on whether Southern Sudan is able to split off of Northern Sudan as it’s own independent country.
The future capital, Juba, is where our College of Nursing & Midwifery has begun as part of our Healthcare Capacity Building efforts in Africa. Our school is on a temporary break right now as our students are allowed to return home to register and vote in this historic election.

Real Medicine Foundation, in collaboration with the Government of South Sudan, the UNFPA, the WHO, St. Mary’s Hospital, Isle of Wight, and the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA), and in partnership with and with financial support from World Children’s Fund, is establishing the first College of Nursing and Midwifery. The consortium aims to provide a scalable working model for this college that will offer a 3 year diploma for Registered Nursing and Midwifery and may be extended to other strategic locations within the country.
