| description | The African Union (AU) has set an ambitious goal to strengthen primary health care systems on the African continent and achieve universal health coverage for all African citizens by 2030. As part of this initiative, the AU advocates for African self-reliance in the manufacturing of life-saving vaccines and drugs. Here, we speak with Professor Nicaise Ndembi and Dr Jerome Kim, who are at the forefront of capacity building for African vaccine manufacturing, about the progress that has been made towards the AU’s goal, and what challenges remain. |
