Background

Brief Background of CEGHADA

Background

The Centre for Global Health and Development in Africa (CEGHADA) is a not-for-profit organization registered in Zambia, with the Patents and Companies Registration Agency (PACRA) as a limited company. It was founded to address local and international health problems in order to improve the health landscape of the African region through implementation of global health initiatives and to support coordination of relevant stakeholders in the field. It is a platform for health and development where global health experts including policy makers, government ministries and agencies, healthcare providers, researchers, program managers, academicians, donors, civil society organisations and vulnerable communities can engage with one another to foster global health matters.

The year 2025 began with a major shift in global health with the United States Government and some European Countries cutting down on aid that was mostly targeted on addressing global health challenges. This move, however, created opportunities to re-look at the global health architecture and consequently refine how global health and development issues should be implemented. Sub-Sahara Africa, was the most disadvantaged with this shift of policy direction. Nevertheless, the region has over the years benefitted from adequate capacity building to leverage knowledge, expertise, skills and resources for bettering health within the region and around the world.

Rationale

The Centre for Global Health and Development in Africa was established due to the realisation that most countries in Sub-Sahara Africa have inadequate skills to implement global health programmes; have weak leadership and governance skills in global health and suffer from fragmented and uncoordinated efforts among various stakeholders. The Centre for Global Health and Development in Africa is a platform to harness the available resources for global health matters; serves as a ‘think tank’ and centre of excellence for innovation in order to foster sustainable development.
