Increased access to culturally sensitive healthcare is the primary goal of Medica XXI.
The tuition, books, living expenses, etc. present an overwhelming obstacle to healthcare educations for most Malawians.
Through financial support to culturally native Malawian students, the number of physicians and physician extenders could dramatically rise.
The subsequent improvement in healthcare delivery would be difficult to measure, though has the potential for exponential impact on the population served.
Empowering culturally native Malawians with the opportunities for healthcare education will allow for self determination of the direction of healthcare delivery and public health initiatives, while keeping the funds spent in the local economy.
