AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Ebola Preparedness: ECSA Health Community has launched a six-month cross-border Ebola emergency push at 33 priority border points along the DRC frontier, targeting high-risk transit corridors that include Burundi, with digital surveillance, safe isolation steps, rapid lab transport links, and cross-border notifications under the World Bank-funded HEPRR programme. University Funding: Burundi plans to restart student catering at the University of Burundi from 2 September 2026, with over 11 billion Burundian francs allocated to feed about 4,000 students after years of suspended services. Polio Milestone: WHO says polio type 2 transmission has been stopped in Burundi, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Republic of Congo, and Uganda after assessments found outbreaks interrupted. Regional Tech & Health Innovation: The EAC and Germany launched the second AI4EAC Challenge for 20,000 people across partner states, adding a new track focused on Ebola outbreak response. Transport & Connectivity: Tanzania’s MV Liemba rehabilitation is entering trials after a 34 billion shilling overhaul, with plans to resume commercial operations on 1 September—key for trade links reaching Burundi and the DRC.
