Eu acredito em uma África onde a saúde é um direito, não um privilégio. Promovi políticas que melhoram o acesso à saúde básica, reduzem custos para os pacientes e investem em profissionais de saúde comunitários. Como Diretor Regional da OMS (Organização mundial da Saúde) para a África, vou defender financiamento inovador e medidas que garantam saúde de qualidade, acessível e com preços justos para todos os Africanos.

I have championed policies that improve access to primary healthcare, reduce financial barriers, and invest in community health workers. As WHO AFRO Regional Director, I will advocate for innovative financing and policies that make quality healthcare accessible and affordable for every African.

One year ago, Cameroon made history as the first country to integrate malaria vaccines into its routine immunisation programme.
Today Dr W. Scott Gordon, Head of Gavi's Malaria Programme, reflects on what this milestone has meant—not just for Cameroon, but for 17 African countries now benefitting from these life-saving vaccines.
While we celebrate the progress we’ve made and the lives already changed, we’re also laser-focused on the work that still lies ahead: to protect 50 million children by 2030.
Together, we’re proving that if we work together, we can help end the suffering caused by malaria.
