Travel to grow, Learn to lead.

Over past few days, i had the honour of attending the 13th IPSF African Pharmaceutical Symposium in Harare. A powerful platform for learning, experience and connection with fellow pharmacists and pharmacy students across Africa.

While in Cairo, I also signed a partnership agreement between IPSF AfRO and the Arab African Council for Awareness (AACA). The partnership aims to strengthen joint efforts in planning and organizing awareness campaigns that promote and protect public health across Africa.

[Sano Samuel @SanoSamuel]

From 25–27 June 2025, I had the privilege of representing @IPSFAfRO at @Africahealthex1 in Cairo. I joined two high-level panels on aligning education, innovation, and youth engagement with health system transformation across the continent.

[Sano Samuel @SanoSamuel]

I spoke on the need to address gaps in mentorship, exposure to diverse career paths, and access to resources. Many students, especially in underserved areas, are expected to compete globally, yet are barely supported locally. That must change.

Uku niko nahuriye na @SadateMunyakazi i Cairo, mu Misiri. Hanyuma ikiganiro kigakomeza mu rurimi rwacu "Kinyarwanda!"

[Sano Samuel @SanoSamuel]

I had an insightful meeting with @VincenLorusso that focused on the work of #APTF and the EU-AU Innovation Agenda WG. We also discussed several collaboration opportunities that @IPSFAfRO could potentially leverage.

[RPSA/AEPHAR @RPSARwanda]

We had an engaging panel discussion on 'Harnessing Technology for a Resilient and Equitable Healthcare System'.

Moderated by @SanoSamuel, it featured a panel of experts: Mr. Pierre KAYITANA, @smugumya, @Othnimbabazi, and Mr. Pascal GATETE.
