Stephen Manortey, PhD
Head of Academic Program

Dr. Manortey’s research and scholarly works focus on community engagement and evaluating the health needs of residents in rural settings. His works include using spatial analysis to assess factors that influence complete household enrollment into the National Health Insurance Scheme and also using standard verbal autopsy procedures to generate infant mortality data in selected rural communities in Ghana.

Dr. Manortey currently serves as a Principal Investigator on a project dubbed “Health2Go” with the aim of establishing a fully operation model to understand the project’s impacts on the health of residents in selected “hard-to-reach” communities in the Lower Manya Krobo Municipality in the Eastern Region of Ghana.
