📌 Engaging communities to advance the Lusaka Agenda
At the continental follow-up workshop in Addis Ababa, convened by @AfricaCDC, the AfricaConstituency Bureau for the Global Fund and WHO AFRO, CSEM joined representatives from 30 African Union Member States and partners to review progress on the five Lusaka Agenda shifts.
This was an opportunity to call on governments to give communities a formal role in decision-making and accountability. Several country representatives also stressed the need to resource civil society to track progress.
