Podcast: Improving Health Equity in Africa

The 10th annual Accountability Breakfast by The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health or PMNCH, is set to take place this Wednesday. The focus of the virtual summit is “Improving Health Equity in Africa”. Despite remarkable progress in driving down maternal and child mortality globally, including in Africa, inequities remain between regions.

For more on this issue, Channel Africa’s Zikhona Miso spoke to Dr Githinji  Gitahi, Co-Chair of PMNCH Strategic Advocacy Committee and Group Chief Executive officer of Amref Health Africa.
