Africa Moves Toward Health Sovereignty via Indigenous Resource Mobilization
The United States has begun transitioning away from multilateral support for organizations such as GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance. This shift is part of an America-first global health strategy focusing on bilateral, nation-to-nation health deals with various African countries. Concerns have been raised that this change in funding models could impact the delivery of vaccines and medicines. The development is being discussed at the World Health Summit in Nairobi, Kenya. African nations are shifting toward health sovereignty by increasing the ability to mobilize resources indigenously.
