Empowering Africa's Health through Innovative Research

Enhancing Research Infrastructure

We partner with governments, agencies, NGOs, philanthropic organizations, and the private sector to develop state-of-the-art research facilities, ensuring researchers have access to the necessary tools and technologies.

Translating Research into Practice

We bridge the gap between research and real-world application by developing policies and practices that translate research findings into effective health interventions.

Innovating Health Technology

We invest in research on digital health, medical devices, and innovative diagnostic tools, supporting start-ups and incubators to bring new technologies to market.

Providing Comprehensive Training and Development Programs

Working in collaboration with world-class academic institutions, we offer a range of training opportunities, including workshops, symposiums, and mentorship programs, to build skills in research methodology, data analysis, and scientific writing.

Promoting Multidisciplinary and International Collaboration:

We encourage collaboration across disciplines and borders, facilitating knowledge exchange and joint research initiatives with global research institutions.

Facilitating Funding Acquisition

We provide researchers with the knowledge and resources to secure funding for their projects, helping them navigate the complex landscape of research grants and financial support.

Driving Medical Research
for Africa's Benefit

Our mission is to transform medical research in Africa by evaluating current infrastructure, developing improvement plans, and providing training and resources to enhance research quality and publication.

We also advocate for balanced disease focus, raise awareness of non-communicable diseases, and promote South-South partnerships to share knowledge and best practices.

Our main priorities

Enabling researchers to meet new challenges

Cardiovascular Diseases

A significant health concern in Africa, contributing to a considerable burden of disease and mortality across the continent.

Cancer

Understand factors contribute to the cancer burden in Africa, including demographic changes and limited access to prevention, early detection.

Diabetes

The prevalence of diabetes in Africa has been increasing steadily over the past few decades.

Quick-win strategy

Strengthening Research Infrastructure

By developing state-of-the-art facilities and providing ongoing support, we want to ensure that African researchers have the tools they need to conduct high-quality high-impact research.

Developing Talent

Through training programs, we nurture the next generation of African researchers, equipping them with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in their fields.

Translating Research into Policy and Practice

We work to ensure that research findings influence health policies and clinical practices, leading to tangible improvements in public health.

Fostering Collaboration

We facilitate partnerships with international research institutions, encouraging interdisciplinary teams to address complex health issues.
