Doing more with less: Financing African health systems today
As foreign aid landscapes shift, Lia Tadesse Gebremedhin, former Minister of Health (Ethiopia), and Rosine Sori-Coulibaly, former Minister of Economy, Finance and Development (Burkina Faso), explored whether smarter, more strategic collaboration—rather than simply more funding—is the key to sustainable, resilient healthcare in Africa. They discussed how integrated national planning, efficient donor alignment, and strengthened governance can create health sovereignty.
