Africa is facing significant challenges in health financing, with a projected 70% decline in external aid between 2021 and 2025, alongside a rise in public health emergencies. In response, the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention<\/a> (Africa CDC) has introduced a strategy aimed at enhancing domestic health financing. This strategy focuses on increasing local investments and exploring innovative revenue mechanisms, such as solidarity levies and leveraging diaspora remittances.<\/p>\n

The goal is to reduce reliance on external aid and meet the Abuja Declaration\u2019s target of allocating at least 15% of national budgets to health. Africa CDC is working with member states to strengthen health financing, improve infrastructure, and foster public-private partnerships. The strategy will be implemented in phases, starting with updating national health plans and piloting new financing models, with the aim of promoting long-term health sustainability and resilience across the continent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
