Many countries in Africa have long grappled with challenges in providing accessible and quality healthcare to their populations due to insufficient infrastructure, shortages of medical professionals, limited funding and the high burden of diseases like malaria and HIV/AIDS. This has especially impacted hard-to-reach and marginalised communities.

But the continent is witnessing a wave of innovative solutions that leverage technology to help bridge this gap and revolutionise the way healthcare is delivered.

From digital tools empowering community health workers to integrated approaches combining multiple health services, African nations are at the forefront of pioneering initiatives that are transforming community health systems. These innovations not only enhance the reach and quality of care that can be provided, but also generate real-world evidence to inform national health policies and programming, paving the way for more sustainable and resilient health systems.
