Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>The African Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) and the French development agency (AFD) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding, marking a shared commitment to expand their partnership in public health.<\/p>\n

Through this memorandum, AFD will provide a grant amounting to 2.4 million Euros under two pillars, devoted to supporting Africa CDC\u2019s mandate in Africa\u2019s public health, particularly in emergency preparedness and response, according to a press statement issued by the Embassy of France in Ethiopia.<\/p>\n

A first portion of the grant will support the development and strengthening of the Africa CDC Health Economics Unit (HEU) over a period of two years, through the recruitment of staff and facilitating the creation of a framework for collaboration in the field of health economics across the continent.<\/p>\n

With Africa CDC championing the continental response to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need to support the Health Economics Unit in its areas of work with the expertise required for evidence-based policies and programs.<\/p>\n

The second part of the grant aims at improving COVID-19 vaccination coverage in targeted countries and strengthening national and regional institutional capacity for addressing health challenges.<\/p>\n

Since mid-2021, Africa CDC has been supporting vaccination activities across Africa through the Saving Lives and Livelihoods (SLL) program around four pillars: purchasing vaccine doses; supporting the deployment of vaccines; strengthening manufacturing of human vaccines and building institutional capacity, the release stated.<\/p>\n

Under the current MoU, and as part of the SLL program, Africa CDC and AFD, in partnership with Amref Health Africa, will invest in locally-led action \u2013 including Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE), and support national vaccination strategies to intensify vaccination roll out and increase uptake.<\/p>\n
