26 Sep 2023

On September 16, 2023, MIU Faculty of Pharmacy signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Hospice Egypt, a registered non-governmental organization dedicated to providing care for patients with advanced-stage illnesses during their final days.

This MoU marks a significant milestone in the collaboration between MIU and Hospice Egypt, in line with the Faculty’s mission to contribute to the health and well-being of the public. The core objective of the MoU is to offer palliative care services to adult patients in Cairo, Giza, and Qalyubia governorates.

Furthermore, the MoU offers an invaluable opportunity for students to engage in summer training in various social work activities within the organization’s premises and the established Hospice facility. This hands-on experience ensures that future pharmacy professionals not only excel academically but also uphold social responsibility.

Through this collaboration, the faculty is taking a positive stride towards promoting values of collaboration and enhances the students’ sense of social accountability, while contributing to the well-being of the community.
