AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Infant Health Policy: Somalia, with UNICEF and WHO, has signed national Breast-milk Substitutes (BMS) Regulations to tighten formula marketing and protect newborn and child health during World Breastfeeding Week. Severe Malnutrition: In Baidoa, admissions for severe acute malnutrition at Save the Children’s stabilization centre nearly tripled in six months, driven by drought, high food prices, aid cuts, and supply stock-outs. Hunger and Aid Pressure: A global report links newborn deaths rising in vulnerable communities to aid cuts, underscoring how funding gaps can quickly translate into worse maternal and newborn outcomes. Climate Risk for Health: El Niño is expected to intensify across East Africa, bringing flood and landslide risks that can disrupt clinics and safe delivery, while also raising the odds of disease spread. Regional Security and Health Access: AU leaders are pushing to extend AUSSOM’s mandate as US support winds down, with concerns that instability could further strain health services and humanitarian delivery in Somalia. Ebola Preparedness: Africa CDC warns DRC’s Ebola response faces operational constraints, even as Uganda is praised for containing the outbreak.
