The #GPWMD Signature Initiative to Mitigate Biothreats in Africa (#SIMBA_BIO) is supporting important progress across the health-security spectrum. We are proud to partner with @ASLM_News, @AfricaCDC and others in this important work.
Africa CDC, in collaboration with ASLM and with support from the Governments of Canada and the UK, convened a two-day Southern Africa regional meeting in Lilongwe, Malawi, to shape the region’s priorities for the 2025–2030 Biosafety and Biosecurity (BSBS) Strategy.
Representatives from Southern African nations contributed critical insights toward strengthening continental frameworks for preventing and responding to biological threats.
Africa CDC’s Senior Biosafety and Biosecurity Technical Officer, Mr. Zibusiso Masuku, commended the Southern Regional TWG for its progress since inception. “I challenge you to strengthen South-South collaboration as a strategy to build Member States’ capacities by leveraging existing regional resources. The essence of biosafety and biosecurity lies in strong multisectoral collaboration, which has been significantly supported by @CanadaFP and the @GOVUK,” he said.
