Lesotho-Boston Health Alliance (LeBoHA)

The Lesotho-Boston Health Alliance (LeBoHA) represents Boston University's Public Health and Family Medicine programs in Lesotho. Currently, LeBoHA is working with the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare on implementing a program for the sustainable strengthening of district hospitals and their associated health centers. Over a period of five years, we will work with the Government of Lesotho to institute sustainable continuing medical and nursing education programs, a Family Medicine residency program, increase the return and retention of Basotho physicians in Lesotho, transform two pilot district hospitals into vibrant, sustainable, well-utilized hospitals providing services of good quality in support of primary care and lay the groundwork for transforming other district hospitals in Lesotho.
