Today, I had the privilege of leading the @MEDWELL_MEDSAR team at #AHTS5, under the theme “Wellness for All.” We showcased our commitment to promoting wellness through awareness, advocacy, physical activity, mental wellbeing, peer support, and innovative digital solutions.
As healthcare evolves, wellness must remain at the centre, not only treating illness, but empowering people and health workers to thrive.
Proud to represent MedWell and contribute to conversations shaping healthier, more resilient communities. #MedWellClub #AHTS5 #WellnessForAll #DigitalHealth
Four leaders. Four critical parts of the health system. One opening conversation that could define what Africa builds next.
The #AHTSat5 Opening Plenary is special because this is not another broad conversation about the promise of technology. It brings the people responsible for the infrastructure, markets, public-health intelligence and talent behind intelligent health systems onto one stage.
Moderated by @georgiendirangu:
· @israb12, CEO of @TeamIrembo, brings the digital public infrastructure and national-scale implementation perspective, how trusted platforms can connect institutions and deliver services to millions of citizens.
· @marakatherine1, Founder of @salientadvisory, brings a deep understanding of Africa’s healthtech market, informed by tracking more than 1,000 companies and working across procurement, financing, commercialisation and government adoption.
· @MEtiebetMD, President and CEO of @VitalStrat, brings the public-health and equity perspective, how data and AI can strengthen prevention, improve decisions and produce measurable outcomes for entire populations.
· @FredSwaniker, Founder and CEO of @SandTechInc, brings the AI, talent and execution perspective, what Africa must do to build, own and operate intelligent systems with its own engineers and delivery capacity.
Together, they will confront the real challenge: the technology already exists. Can Africa integrate it, govern it, finance it, build the talent behind it and scale it without creating another generation of disconnected solutions?

Putting Communities First: Transforming HIV and SRHR Through Partnership in Rwanda
Rwanda’s HIV response is a global reference point, having reached remarkable milestones with adult targets now standing at 96-98-98. However, national averages can sometimes hide the people the system still misses.
In this compelling article, we highlight the impactful power of collaboration and partnership between the @RwandaNGOForum and @UNAIDSRwanda in putting key and priority populations, including FSW, MSM, transgender people, PWID/PWUD, people with disabilities, and AGYW, at the center of the HIV and SRHR response through Community-Led Monitoring (CLM), data-driven advocacy, and policy transformation.

How can we better leverage community-led monitoring (CLM) and SRHR initiatives to reach the last mile and ensure no one is left behind in our health responses? Share your thoughts in the comments below and keep the conversation going.

Health in Focus || Google is not a doctor. AI is not a diagnosis.
When a fever, headache or persistent cough appears, it can be tempting to search the symptoms online or ask AI and conclude, “This is what I have.”
But the same symptom can be caused by very different conditions. A proper diagnosis may require a medical history, physical examination and, when necessary, laboratory or imaging tests.
AI and online health information can help us learn, ask better questions and understand our health. But they should not replace the assessment of a qualified health professional.
Use technology to become better informed, not to replace professional care.
Thank you Dr Eric Niyongira(@EricNiyongira1 )for rising This conversation which is contributing to misinformation and false diagnosis in the society
