Introduction

 The Ethiopian Public Health Association (EPHA) was established in 1989, and registered as a local non-governmental and non-profit professional society that brings together health workers throughout Ethiopia for professional exchange, collaboration and action with a vision and mission to promote, high professional standards and better health for all Ethiopians through advocacy, networking, capacity building and active involvement of its members.

To realize its vision, building the capacity of staff and its members is one of the strategies to ensuring dynamism, effectiveness, and efficiency in discharging EPHA’s responsibilities and implementing its strategic plan.
