About On Call Africa

On-Call Africa was set up by a group of doctors and international development experts, all with a shared desire to improve access to healthcare and health outcomes within rural communities. In particular, looking to support communities with traditionally poor access to medical professionals and amenities – Zambia was selected due to its low ratio of doctors to people. Following a consultation with the Ministry of Health, the Southern Province was selected as the starting point.

We work in partnership with the Ministry of Health, Rural Health Facilities, volunteer Doctors from the UK, and delivery partners to support the development of strong and effective rural health systems in Southern Province, Zambia. We also work with Rural Health Facilities that have been identified by the Ministry of Health as being in need of capacity building and support. With these Rural Health Facilities, we map their catchment area, carry out in-depth assessments of health facility needs, and the needs of their communities, and use these to work with the health facility staff to develop detailed quality improvement and implementation plans to improve access to and quality of healthcare. Once in place, we work with the Ministry of Health, and our partners to deliver identified programs of work.

We are currently experiencing rapid growth as an organization, and working in partnership with large reputable partners to develop programs, and submit funding proposals to deliver this work. This diverse role will work across all funding streams, and support the organization to effectively manage and funds and report on their use.
