The underlying basis for all activities of IEMEA stem from the belief that the keys to improved health and social conditions lie in universal access to education for children and health care workers. Education of local health care providers is a method of capacity building that has long term benefit to under-resourced communities. As one strategy to raise human resources and in service to the community, IEMEA offers training seminars and courses to educators, as well as to those interested in becoming involved in the development of their own communities.

100% of all funds raised from our courses are donated to Pebbles to Pearls Foundation projects that promote access to education in under resourced countries with a focus on equitable access for women and girls.
