Ethiopia has made remarkable strides in the fight against #BreastCancer by bringing vital services closer to communities. Through a transformative partnership with CHAI and other key collaborators, the Ethiopian government has expanded breast cancer treatment and early detection services, giving thousands of women access to timely care within their communities. “At CHAI, our focus is on building sustainable, resilient, and women-centered health systems that ensure equitable access to early cancer detection, diagnosis and treatment. We remain committed to working alongside the Ministry of Health to continue expanding these life-saving services and making early intervention possible for every woman, no matter where she lives.” –Dr Yared Tilahun, Program Manager, NCDs, CHAI Ethiopia Learn how this program is saving lives and creating a sustainable healthcare model for future generations: https://ow.ly/NmnK50TVcrp #GlobalHealth #BreastCancerAwareness #HealthcareInnovation #Ethiopia #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth American Cancer Society Kreftforeningen (Norwegian Cancer Society)

Earlier this month, Ethiopia’s Ministry of Health unveiled a new oxygen production facility in Adama, developed with support from the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) and The Global Fund. This new plant will strengthen the medical oxygen supply for the hospital and surrounding facilities, ensuring that oxygen is accessible to all who need it. “Access to reliable oxygen services is crucial for saving lives, especially in critical care and emergency settings. Our commitment is to ensure that every health facility is equipped with the necessary resources, so no patient is left without the life-saving support that oxygen provides.” ~Dr. Dereje Duguma, State Minister of Health of Ethiopia

Despite progress in maternal and child health with a dramatic decrease in global childhood mortality over the last two decades, Africa has a higher number of stillbirths than they were 20 years ago. On #WorldStatisticsDay, CHAI's Andrew Storey reflected on how statistics shine a light on hidden gaps in global child mortality, and CHAI's commitment, together with partners, to ensuring stillbirths no longer remain the invisible tragedy in the global health narrative. #MaternalHealth #ChildHealth #WSD2024

#MOP36 #SideEvent At the Thirty-Sixth Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol (MOP36), Alliance for an Energy Efficient Economy (AEEE), Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI), and CLASP are organizing a side event on ‘Cooling with Purpose: Transforming Consumer Choices for Room Air Conditioner Efficiency.’ This roundtable discussion will spotlight the unique challenges and opportunities in emerging markets, where a combination of policy interventions and market development programs are essential to address the surging demand for cooling. The discussion aims to uncover how market development programs and behavioral insights can complement policy measures, thus paving the way for a sustainable cooling future. Stay tuned for more updates.

Unitaid, in collaboration with partners, has launched a pioneering regional manufacturing initiative to improve access to medical oxygen across Sub-Saharan Africa. With production facilities in Kenya and Tanzania, the initiative will significantly boost #LiquidOxygen production across the region. CHAI will lead on market strategy, working in partnership with the governments of Kenya and Tanzania while PATH will focus on community and civil society engagement. The three Kenyan and Tanzanian oxygen manufacturers will expand liquid oxygen production and distribution. “Medical oxygen is critical for saving lives. By working together with Kenyan and Tanzanian manufacturers and other partners, we are ensuring that oxygen is no longer a luxury but a basic right for all patients, especially in times of critical need.” Unitaid Executive Director Dr. Philippe Duneton “This partnership will combine global and local expertise with innovative financing to expand access to medical oxygen for hundreds of thousands of people in Kenya and Tanzania."

🌏With cooling-related emissions set to soar in the coming decades, multi-stakeholder partnerships are essential to scale access to high-efficiency cooling technology, especially in markets like #India. Platforms like USAID’s Low Carbon Comfort and Cooling Collective (LC4) will be critical in fostering collaboration and testing high-impact interventions. We were privileged to announce our alignment with this initiative, discuss our commitment to sustainable cooling, and participate in the launch event at the 2024 South Asia Clean Energy Forum along with organizations such as Energy Efficiency Services Limited, Carrier, and Voltas Limited - A TATA Enterprise, amongst others. In partnership with the Cadence Design Systems Giving Foundation, CHAI is actively testing innovative mechanisms to catalyze introduction and adoption of energy-efficient air conditioners.

🧐How has the African #vaccine manufacturing landscape changed in the last year? Africa CDC, Clinton Health Access Initiative, and PATH surveyed African vaccine manufacturers to help clarify current manufacturing capacity and capabilities, progress made in the last year, and future outlooks. Africa’s vaccine manufacturing ecosystem is moving toward sustainability but still has a long way to go. Clarifying demand and securing commitments from African nations to buy local is crucial for building market health and strengthening manufacturers’ vaccine business cases. Stakeholders can support a sustainable vaccine manufacturing environment by strategically targeting investments and supporting African nations in committing to buying African-made vaccines.
