Tanzania’s deputy prime minister Dr Doto Mashaka Biteko, will join Princess Zahra, development partners, and guests at the event to mark the latest expansion of the Aga Khan Hospital in Dar es Salaam.
The Hospital is managed by Aga Khan Health Services (AKHS), which has been operating in Tanzania since the 1920s, and counts among the longest-serving healthcare institutions in East Africa. Striving to deliver services to international standards, AKHS facilities in Tanzania are known today for their high level of ethical practices, innovation, and provision of quality healthcare.
Cancer is on the rise in regions like East Africa, which are less well-equipped for the onslaught of non-communicable diseases. Through enhanced screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the new Centre in Dar es Salaam hopes to raise awareness in the local community and offer enhanced levels of care.
