The African Union and its member states have been urged to allocate $4.3 billion annually to expand Africa's community health workforce, with the goal of reaching two million workers by 2030. Dr Raji Tajudeen, Acting Deputy Director-General of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, made the call at a high-level ministerial gathering in Abuja, stressing the need for concrete financial and policy commitments to translate continental agreements into practical action.
Tajudeen emphasized that Africa's challenges require an equally ambitious response and urged participating countries to commit to domestic financing, payroll reforms, policy measures, and implementation plans to strengthen community health systems.
