Contexte
Reliable electricity is essential for safe and effective healthcare, supporting medical procedures, diagnostic equipment and the storage of medicines. Yet many healthcare facilities across sub-Saharan Africa face unreliable power supplies or have no electricity access.
Building on an earlier dialogue on electricity access and healthcare in sub-Saharan Africa, the conference brought together international experts, policymakers and stakeholders to examine these challenges and identify practical approaches to addressing them.
Conference themes
- Day 1 — The Present Situation: Experiences and Challenges: Understanding existing conditions and barriers to reliable electricity access.
- Day 2 — Surmounting the Challenges: Exploring regulatory, business and financing approaches.
- Day 3 — Looking Ahead and Innovating Together: Considering innovative solutions and opportunities for collaboration.
