In 2014 the GP Update team established a new, independent social enterprise to grow this international work in a broad range of high and low income settings. The team already has experience in countries as diverse as Nepal, Egypt and Cambodia and parts of Africa. We are developing materials with particular focus on non-communicable diseases (NCDs). These include hypertension, respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, epilepsy and mental health.
In 2014 the team is conducting pilot projects, working with international agencies, governments and local partners, including projects in Jordan, Kenya, Burkina Faso and-situation permitting - in Iraq. Offers of collaboration are invited to adapt and localise our evidence based materials in support of health systems and health workers seeking to address NCDs around the world.
