AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Hospital Digitisation & Patient Safety: Cameroon is digitizing hospitals with a 29 billion CFA franc ($51m) five-year push after a May wave of patient deaths and suspensions of about a dozen doctors, aiming for safer care through electronic records, traceable prescriptions, and faster emergency response. Maternal & Menstrual Health: A Cameroon menstrual health programme reported 21% fewer girl absences in participating schools, with gains tied to safe toilets, supplies, teacher support, clubs, and community engagement (including boys and male teachers to cut stigma). Nutrition & Local Dairy: Cameroon is pushing private investors to close a major milk powder and dairy gap—local production covers under a third of demand—by leveraging collection centers and mini-dairies to reduce imports. Cross-Border Travel Ease: Côte d’Ivoire and Cameroon have finalized a mutual visa exemption agreement, promising smoother movement for business and tourism between Abidjan and Yaoundé. US Visa Processing Changes (Cameroon-linked): The US plans to cut Africa visa-processing sites from nearly 50 to 20 hubs, with Yaoundé listed among the remaining locations. Health Access in Conflict Areas: Reporting highlights how civil unrest in Cameroon’s Limbe area has left families with limited skilled care, prompting midwife training support focused on improving local maternal health. EV Infrastructure Investment: Spiro secured a $215m investment round to expand electric mobility and battery-swapping infrastructure across African cities—relevant to cleaner urban transport and energy systems.
