Africa's Health Future Must Be Written by Africans: WHO Regional Director
The continent’s health destiny must be driven entirely by African leadership, institutions, innovation, and action, Dr. Mohamed Yakub Janabi said at the closing of the 76th WHO Regional Committee for Africa in Addis Ababa, as reported by a Sputnik Africa correspondent.
He urged health officials to shift from discussion to execution, transforming the "Vision 2035" plan from a document into a tangible legacy.
"May they say this was the moment Africa stopped asking what was possible and started providing what was possible," he noted, thanking Ethiopia, session leadership, and international partners for hosting the committee meeting.
