Public health emergency in Africa, and staffing crises at NGOs
This week the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization both declared mpox as a public health emergency. This is the first time the Africa CDC declared a public health emergency as it aims to increase its autonomy. There have been more than 17,000 suspected cases across the African continent, more than the total number of cases reported in 2023.
In the United Kingdom, the International Rescue Committee is set to shed 1 in 9 staff as it faces a funding crisis. We explore the wider issue of reduced funding in global development despite rising humanitarian needs.
To discuss these stories, and others, Devex President and Editor-in-Chief Raj Kumar sits down with Managing Editor Anna Gawel and Business Editor David Ainsworth for the latest episode of the podcast series.
