Women are the backbone of public health across Africa, standing at the forefront of outbreak response, emergency preparedness, and health system resilience.

At @AfricaCDC, we honor the women in our ranks—scientists, epidemiologists, emergency responders, policy leaders, and more—who work tirelessly to protect communities and strengthen health security across the continent.

On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate their unwavering dedication, expertise, and leadership. Their commitment continue to inspire progress toward a healthier, safer Africa.
