CBN Health Care Vision Statement

The COVID-19 global pandemic has exposed the vulnerabilities of health systems worldwide, and the impact of health-related issues on the world’s economy. Sub-Saharan Africa takes up 1% of the world’s health expenditure despite accounting for 13% of the world’s population. It is estimated that USD25 billion to USD30 billion in new investment will be needed for healthcare assets

Our strategy is to promote public-private sector collaboration to build strong continental healthcare systems, policy environments, and infrastructure – as a catalyst for a resilient African economy. Our strategy is aligned with principles of cooperation, and existing policy commitments as reflected in various continental and global instruments.
