AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Health Workforce: WAHO and ECOWAS are finalising a regional map of health training institutions to identify capacity gaps and help address shortages of medical workers across West Africa. Emergency Response: A WHO and Africa CDC training in Cabo Verde is building emergency response skills among health officials from Guinea-Bissau and four other Portuguese-speaking countries, including for disease outbreaks and climate-related disasters. Animal and Public Health: ECOWAS has moved its Regional Animal Health Centre to Alto Bandim in Bissau. The centre is expected to strengthen surveillance and control of animal and zoonotic diseases, while supporting food security and a One Health approach.
