Introducing: Community of Practice- Ghana (CoP-G)
What is a Community of Practice?
Here's how it works:
A Community of Practice (CoP) is a group of people who come together to discuss a specific issue or problem as a mutually supportive team. While the group is made up of people who share a common purpose, group members often have varying degrees of training and different experiences, making each member's contributions unique and valuable.
MMPI is pleased to announce the formation of our first CoP, designed for Ghana's pediatric OTs. Our goal is to create a supportive and collaborative place to develop OT practice skills and to explore ways to expand culturally relevant pediatric OT practice in Ghana.
