The SAHA 6th Annual Convention kicked off this morning at Safari Resort in Borama, hosted by @AmoudUniversity.

As part of SAHA's commitment to strengthening Somaliland's healthcare system, the convention aims to enhance the capacity of local health professionals by providing the latest evidence-based clinical knowledge. The convention brings together experienced Somaliland specialists from around the world to share their expertise and the latest advances in clinical practice with local physicians and healthcare professionals.

For the past three years, the convention has focused on the latest updates in the prevention and management of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), recognizing them as one of the most pressing public health challenges facing both Somaliland and the global community.

Participants who complete the convention may claim up to 13 AAFP Prescribed Credits, accepted by the American Medical Association (AMA) as equivalent to 13 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) kill 41 million people yearly, equivalent to 74% of all deaths globally.

Of all NCD deaths, 77% are in low- and middle-income countries such as Somaliland. SAHA will continue to involve strategic guidance, material, operational support, and technical consultation.
