Presented by: Abby Horton and Paige Johnson from The University of Alabama, and Belinda Gombachika and Febbie Tambala-Jamieson from Kamuzu University of Health Sciences

This webinar will delve into a partnership built upon a collaborative community of faculty and students from Kamuzu University of Health Sciences Kamuzu College of Nursing in Malawi and The University of Alabama’s Capstone College of Nursing in Alabama. This partnership explored the barriers to health literacy experienced among rural communities. During our exploration of COVID-19 vaccine uptake and hesitancy, health literacy was identified as an important challenge to education and informed consent.  The overall purpose of this project was to strengthen and expand the institutional partnership capacity on health literacy in rural communities and collaborative nursing education.
