#DYK ? Two-thirds of the world’s #HealthWorker gap is in #Africa ? 🌍
The new Africa #HealthWorforce Investment Charter is a game-changer for closing this gap and delivering #HealthForAll

Interesting read. Good to see Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell MP’s Nov22 Doctors & Nurses private member’s bill on workforce migration referenced. Exciting to see THET’ thinking & #HealthPartnerships work evident in mutual benefit section. Look 4ward to supporting Coalition for Global Prosperity on this agenda
Ajay Banga & Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus highlight vision to expand health investment, expand service coverage, remove barriers, and create jobs in health to improve population health & SDG goals.

'The #UKAfricaHealthSummit took place this week, uniting global health leaders in antimicrobial stewardship to tackle this increasing threat ahead of the 2024 High-level Meeting in New York.' Reflections from Malaria Consortium malariaconsortium.org/news-centre/in…
📆 Two Weeks On: #UKAfricaHealthSummit
The Summit's spotlight on #AntimicrobialResistance was crucial ahead of September's #AMR High-Level Meeting.
It was great to hear from Prof. Dame Sally Davies on the need to improve antibiotic access for all, everywhere.
Now world leaders must act.
