AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Breastfeeding Spotlight: Burundi’s exclusive breastfeeding rate is above 80%, and WHO/UNICEF say the country is becoming a real-world test case for what works when health services, workplace support, and public investment back mothers—not just awareness campaigns. Malaria & Climate Risk: New research warns climate change is “moving” malaria—overall risk may rise slightly, but transmission could shift into new areas, with projected increases for places including Kenya and Burundi. Cross-Border Care Gaps: Migrants moving within and across Africa often can’t access continuity of treatment because records don’t follow them and health systems don’t share data, leaving patients restarting care from scratch. El Niño Preparedness: East African governments are flagging flood and disease risks ahead of El Niño rains, with Nairobi and parts of the Lake Basin listed as high-risk for outbreaks and waterborne illness. Youth Health & Policy Push: A Kampala youth summit backed by Reach A Hand Africa and partners called for measurable change tied to Agenda 2063, including priorities that touch health and wellbeing. Burundi Safety & Health Access: Reports from Rumonge and Gitega describe serious violence cases where victims were taken to health centers/hospitals, underscoring the need for timely care and thorough investigations.
