The Dodoma Project, a 5-million-dollar initiative that commenced in 2021, successfully completed its final activities this year. Through this project, KOFIH confirmed its significant contribution to improving maternal and child health across two target regions in Dodoma.

Africa’s true test of sovereignty is also happening in maternity wards, rural clinics, and the hands of frontline health workers.

In a powerful new op-ed, H.E President of Tanzania, Samia Suluhu Hassan and Africa CDC Director-General Dr. Jean Kaseya call for urgent action: Africa cannot achieve real transformation while women and newborns are left behind by systemic health gaps.

By rallying around the "Three Zeros" agenda and the "Jiongeze Tuwavushe Salama" vision, African nations are moving from promises to action: delivering quality, emergency-ready, and country-led healthcare for every mother and child.

KOFIH, a Korean official development assistance (ODA) agency, supports NPHL in Tanzania to strengthen infectious disease diagnostics. In January, Korean experts(Hanyang, Konkuk University School of Medicine) shared knowledge on dengue & influenza.

KOFIH, a Korean official development assistance (ODA) agency, has been supporting nine regional hospitals in Pwani since 2023 to improve maternal and child health. We are aiming for excellent results through a mid-term evaluation.

We took time to review the second-year activities of the Pwani Maternal and Child Health Phase 2 Project. During this time, we also revisited the ways in which RHMT, CHMT, and KOFIH are collaborating and reaffirmed our efforts toward achieving our shared goals.

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

Globally, 1 in 5 girls is married before the age of 18.

Child marriage is not only a major risk factor for early pregnancy, it also increases risk of:

⚡️ Violence
⚡️ Dropping out of school
⚡️ Mental health conditions
⚡️ HIV/AIDS & other sexually transmitted infections

Every girl deserves health, education & the ability to shape their future. 🔗https://t.co/5K98iApk4e

In most of @_AfricanUnion Member States, children are 18 times more likely to die before their 5th birthday than in other regions.

With the right investments, policies and innovation, we can change this trajectory and ensure that no mother or child is left behind.

Maternal health in Africa: there’s progress, but challenges remain 🚨

The region bears a disproportionate burden of maternal mortality, counting for 70% of global maternal deaths in 2023.

Urgent investment in quality healthcare, stronger health systems, skilled health workers, local solutions and gender equality are key to tackling maternal deaths.

Today is World Health Day!👩‍👧

The health of mums and babies affects every single one of us. Around the world, millions of lives are lost each year due to causes that could be prevented with timely, high quality care.

Health is a right, not a privilege.

#HopefulFutures

[Africa CDC @AfricaCDC]

Too many children are not making it to their 5th birthday.

In most African countries, 1 in 13 children won’t survive past age five. This is more than a statistic—it’s a call to action.

The risks are even greater for the poorest households, underserved areas, and mothers with limited education. But there is hope. Quality care before, during, and after birth saves lives. Early postnatal check-ups help detect danger signs in babies, support mothers with breastfeeding, immunization, and essential care = giving every child a fair chance to thrive.

This #WorldHealthDay, join us in reaffirming our shared commitment to maternal and newborn health across the continent.

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

In 2023, 260 000 women died due to pregnancy-related complications.

That’s one death every two minutes. ⏳

With humanitarian crises and aid cuts threatening already fragile progress, urgent action is needed to
💙 invest in lifesaving maternity care
💙 ensure gender equality and rights.

School meals are often the only source of nutrition for millions of hungry children.

Along with other forms of food assistance, @WFP provides life-saving school meals to vulnerable children around the world.

These three delays are driving preventable maternal deaths:

1⃣ Delay in deciding to seek care
2⃣ Delay in reaching care
3⃣ Delay in receiving quality care

Each of these delays is avoidable — and each costs lives. We must act now to protect mothers and their newborns.
