The International Conference on Public Health in Africa (CPHIA) is a transformative platform for Africa’s health. CPHIA, a flagship conference of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and prevention (Africa CDC) and African Union Member States is a unique annual event that connects political leaders, policy makers, private sector and community actors with scientists and programme implementers. This platform provides an excellent opportunity for Africans to have open dialogue not only on critical issues impacting its health but to share new scientific breakthroughs and innovations with potential to catalyse positive change. With the connections developed and the new knowledge gained, CPHIA is positioned to drive the evidence-based reforms that Africa needs to deliver on health, translating scientific evidence and innovations into health products, tools, policies and well-funded effective programmes.
