AFRIKANET CONNECTING HOSPITALS FOR BETTER HEALTH CARES IN AFRICA

Monday, October 19th, 2015EAST AFRICA, News, Projects, TanzaniaTFK hermann

Overview

Africa’s issue with low health care access is serious: one quarter of the global burden of disease is located in the African continent. However, Africa counts only 3% of the world’s healthcare workers. The lack of trained personnel and formation is affecting millions of people across the continent, especially when those people are living in rural communities. Given that more than 65% of the African population is still located in rural areas, most of them have no physically nor virtually access to medical specialists.

Involvement for supporting local medical teams is increasing over the continent. Indeed in such countries as Tanzania, overseas volunteer professionals help local communities by sharing their professional expertise on sites and via “telemedicine” consultation program.

Challenge

To provide medical organizations with better services and formations, a reliable Internet network is mandatory. Internet purpose is multiple: doctors and specialists need to keep up to date with the latest medical treatment, online medical consultations can be given to people in the most remote areas, doctors can communicate together and help each other while operating.

The global commitment to grow better medical facilities for a more dynamic and responsive service can only be possible with the Internet technology. Thus AFRIKANET was asked to furnish the suitable equipment and services to help health organizations to face this important challenge.

Afrikanet’s solution

A Tanzanian medical centre required from AFRIKANET to connect their facilities to the Internet. Thanks to its wide range of satellite coverages, AFRIKANET can cover the entire African continent and thus Tanzania.

AFRIKANET is offering a Ku or C-Band broadband to medical centres with competitive and comprehensive prices, built to respect our commitment to play a major role in Africa’s development. With our technical team on the ground, ensuring a technical support to organizations willing to become “e-professional” is part of our duty.

AFRIKANET was present at the IBC show in Amsterdam, held in September 2015. This exhibition, gathering experts of the telecommunication sector from all over the world, was a great opportunity for AFRIKANET to expand its professional network and to be aware of the latest technological advances.

The 2015 edition of IBC has been the most successful so far, with a total of 55,128 visitors and more than 1,800 exhibitors. Conferences about the future of media and telecommunications were hold during these 5 days of exhibition. Which future does the telecommunication industry expect? As an answer, Fran Unsworth, the Director of BBC World Service, said: “the future is digital and we need to expand it – but not at the expense of television and radio”. The media industry is constantly evolving and is “radically different from where we were even five years ago”, according to Michael Crimp, CEO of IBC. Consumers now defined their needs and demand new functionality to their vendors. Future is about understanding and cooperating with our customers to provide them with specific solutions.

Sharing ideas and point of views with other professionals from the same sector was an exciting experience which leads us towards eventual partnerships between AFRIKANET and other companies. All the AFRIKANET Team appreciated the opportunity we had to talk with other entities about how we can develop INTERNET SERVICES BY SATELLITE IN AFRICA by providing our presence and professionalism on the ground.

As a leading actor of telecommunication across Africa, defining a brighter future and finding partners is one of the key goals of AFRIKANET.
