One year and Half Journey: The Africa CDC’s Program on Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), Injuries and Mental Health

In the second strategic plan (2023-2027), one of the priorities of Africa CDC is to strengthen integrated health systems to prevent and control high-burden diseases in Member States.

In April 2022, Africa CDC developed the continental strategic priorities on NCDs, Injuries and Mental health including enhancing capacity to develop and implement policies to prevent, protect and manage them; political advocacy for better financing; workforce development; and increased access to essential technologies, medicines and diagnostics in Africa.

The role of Africa CDC to address the high burden non-communicable diseases, injuries and mental health has been recognized within the Africa CDC partners, donors and the strategy has been an important tool to mobilize resources to support Member States in this area guided by our priorities and the new public health order.

This slide deck, presented at the Developing Countries Vaccine Manufacturers Network International Annual General Meeting in October 2024, describes updated results from a study to assess the current and planned state of vaccine manufacturing in Africa and provides insights into what’s needed to develop a robust and sustainable vaccine manufacturing ecosystem.

We surveyed African vaccine manufacturers to better understand their current manufacturing capacity and capabilities, the progress they’ve made since 2023, and their future outlooks. This information can help stakeholders and funders better coordinate and prioritize actions to build a successful African vaccine manufacturing ecosystem.
