AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoMalaria vaccines in Mozambique: PATH helped train 400 community members (including Agentes Polivalentes de Saúde and health committee leaders) and 60 health workers in Tete and Zambézia to boost malaria vaccine promotion through better community conversations, myth-busting, and follow-up for children who missed doses. Maternal/newborn care access in Eswatini (regional health signal): King Mswati III opened the E50m Khanyisile Hee Yeon Clinic (E200m medical centre project), pushing specialised services closer to Nyonyane residents to cut travel costs and support earlier treatment. Child health and preventable deaths (Mozambique included): A CDC-supported CHAMPS review across Mozambique and other countries found 4 in 5 stillbirths and young child deaths were preventable or possibly preventable with care that already exists—highlighting gaps in pregnancy and newborn care. TB treatment resistance study (Mozambique included): Oxford leads the £10m RESPECT-TB project tracking how resistance to newer drug-resistant TB medicines is emerging, with work across India, Kazakhstan, Mozambique, South Africa and Vietnam. Pandemic preparedness equipment (not Mozambique, but health systems): WHO and the Pandemic Fund delivered M2.5m in medical and ICT tools to Lesotho to strengthen outbreak detection and response.
