Title: Health Officer
I believe in fair and impartial accessibility of health services to every citizen in a community.

Zeno is from Uganda. Prior to joining GHC, we worked with the Global Youth Coalition on HIV/AIDS, a US based HIV/AIDS activist organization working with young people all over the world to prevent and control the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Previously, he volunteered as a project leader with the Open Society Foundation’s Youth Action Fund, a youth initiative dedicated to empowering young people and moving them to be agents of change in their communities. He was also a Millennium Development Goals Advocate with Youth Action for Change and volunteered as a Village Health Team trainer and pediatric care support officer with Allied Initiatives for Community Development (AFICOD-Uganda). Zeno decided to pursue a medical degree so that he could acquire the necessary disease control and prevention competencies to change the tide and burden of preventable diseases in my community.
