Dr. Ali Haji Adam, the Minister of Health and Social Care of the Federal Government of Somalia, attended the Annual Forum of African Health Ministers held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
The forum is part of the broader African Union Summit and brings together over 30 health ministers from across the continent.
The event serves as a crucial platform for African health leaders to convene and focus on key issues related to the development of healthcare systems across Africa.
This year, the forum concentrated on strengthening health systems through political commitments and strategic planning. Dr. Ali emphasized the vital role of health leadership in enhancing the well-being of communities throughout Africa.
During the event, the Minister also engaged in constructive discussions with several fellow health ministers and leadership from the Africa CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), who are responsible for organizing the forum. These discussions are expected to strengthen cooperation between African nations and international health organizations, facilitating improved healthcare delivery across the continent.
Dr. Ali’s participation in this forum underscores Somalia’s commitment to advancing its healthcare sector in alignment with regional and continental health goals.
