At Africa Health ExCon, Egypt made history as the first African Union Member State to officially join the African Pooled Procurement Mechanism (#APPM). This bold step marks a new era of collaboration, empowering Africa to secure its own health destiny. With this commitment, we move closer to a continent where essential health products are accessible, local manufacturing is strengthened, and #HealthSecurity is a reality for all. As Dr. Jean Kaseya, Director General of Africa CDC, stated: “APPM is the turning point, where we shift the narrative from fragmented procurement to manufacturing sovereignty and health security.” Congratulations to Egypt for leading the way! Let’s inspire more AU Member States to join this transformative journey. 🔗 Press release: https://ow.ly/GWKm50Zc91h Ministry of Health & Population - Egypt | The Egyptian Authority for Unified Procurement "UPA" #HealthSovereignty #LocalManufacturing #Agenda2063 #AfricaResponds
