Building a Connected Africa
At Vaka Health Foundation, we believe digital health is not the future, it is the present. Across Africa, we are using technology to break down barriers, connect communities, and deliver quality healthcare where it’s needed most. Our work is grounded in the belief that every person, no matter where they live, deserves access to modern, compassionate care.

Real-World Impact: Virtual Hospitals Across Africa
We don’t just teach we do. Vaka Health Foundation has set up virtual hospital networks in Zimbabwe, Uganda, and Botswana.
In Zimbabwe, our ZimSmart Villages project has established 28 e-health centers, integrating satellite internet and telehealth kiosks in rural communities.
In Uganda and Botswana, we’ve launched digital health hubs that provide remote consultations, diagnostics, and chronic disease management, reaching thousands who previously had no access to specialist care.
Hands-On Learning and Pitch Opportunities
Every participant in our digital health programs gets the chance to join our end-of-year Digital Health Pitch Panel. Here, you’ll present your innovation to a panel of experts, receive feedback, and get support in seeking funding, loans, or investment to turn your idea into reality. We don’t just teach theory—we help you build, launch, and scale your digital health solution.
Mentorship and Ongoing Support
Our mentorship program connects you with experienced digital health leaders and entrepreneurs. Whether you’re developing a new app, launching a telehealth service, or building a community health platform, you’ll have guidance every step of the way.
