Reflections from Resilience Action Network Africa (RANA) Executive Director Aggrey Aluso on the 4th International Conference on Public Health in Africa #CPHIA2025. www.linkedin.com/posts/aggrey...
"Collaboration among African countries will allow faster data sharing & regional preparedness. Climate driven outbreaks will continue to strain health systems if we do not prioritize climate adaptation policies for #NTD control programs," said John Amuasi, KNUST #CPHIA2025
"Women & children bear the greatest burden of #NTDs. From social stigma & discrimination, increased burden of care for the affected, to disability, school absenteeism, systemic exclusions & lack of pediatric formulations." -
Mary Amuyunzu-Nyamongo from AIHD #CPHIA2025 #beatNTDs
"Countries in Eastern Africa have started domesticating the visceral #leishmaniasis strategic framework. With the reduced funding, domestic resource mobilization is critical to bridge the gaps in elimination," said Simon Bolo at #CPHIA2025 #ZeroLeish
"The clinical trial ecosystem keeps evolving. Good clinical practice contributes to #UHC. Good standard of care, infrastructure, equipment & trained staff contributes to good care of patients." @nathsw.bsky.social #CPHIA2025
From research to community outreach, Senegal is stepping up the fight against #mycetoma. "Together with partners, we are helping strengthen surveillance, diagnosis & patient care for this neglected disease." - Prof Doudou Sow from UGBSN #CPHIA2025
At #CPHIA2025, we hosted the only side event dedicated to NTDs. Eliminating diseases like leishmaniasis, mycetoma & dengue requires more than commitment.
➡️ It demands innovation in diagnostic tools, treatment options & understanding disease burden to better inform interventions.
“Africa must finance its own priorities,” says Africa CDC’s Dr. Landry Dongmo Tsague.
From digital transformation to sustainable health funding, the message from #CPHIA2025 is clear: self-reliance is the new frontier.

The #CPHIA2025 highlights the critical role of government leadership in achieving better health outcomes.
Sustainable progress starts with strong national planning & dedicated budgets that put equitable healthcare access at the centre of development. #HealthForAll
With global aid shrinking, Africa’s policymakers are betting on science and solidarity. The Africa CDC’s plan at #CPHIA2025 could make the continent a #vaccine powerhouse.

🌍 We can’t import our way to health security. As Africa still imports most vaccines & HIV/TB medicines.
At #CPHIA2025 health leaders stressed that Africa’s health sovereignty depends on:
❇️Local vaccine production
❇️Harmonised regulation
❇️Financing that matches ambition

🌍 “Africa is still fragile,” Jean Kaseya (Africa CDC).
Lack of labs, data & national institutes—plus declining donor funds—leave countries exposed.
But change is coming via 🏭 local vaccine manufacturing + 📊 sustainable financing.
