The EU-African Union Health Partnership, a milestone in strengthening Africa’s health security, resilience, and sovereignty, is reportedly focused on three new initiatives.
Ethiopia is fully committed to working closely with the Africa CDC, the EU, and all partners to ensure strong systems, strong institutions, and better health outcomes for communities, said Minister of Health Dr. Mekdes Daba.
The two continents are continuing their efforts to address current and future health threats to achieve Africa’s health sovereignty and the broader Sustainable Development Goals; the EU-African Union has strengthened its long-term and comprehensive health partnership through the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (ACDC).
The forum was attended by Minister of Health Dr. Mekdes Daba, European Union Commissioner for International Cooperation Joseph Sikela, Africa CDC Director-General Dr. Jean Casey, senior representatives of the European Union and African Union member states, as well as international health partners.
