About the Webinar
Africa bears a significant burden from vector-borne diseases, particularly malaria, which remains a leading cause of illness and death on the continent. Other diseases, such as yellow fever, dengue, and Zika, also pose serious health threats. The growing impacts of natural hazards are exacerbating these issues by influencing mosquito populations and the transmission of these diseases.
As organisations continue to operate across Africa, it is crucial to understand not only the health implications for employees and local communities but also the vital role the private sector plays in addressing these challenges.
Join our upcoming webinar where our health experts, Dr Chris van Straten, Global Health Advisor, Clinical Governance and Isabelle Hagner, Director of Public Health, Middle East and Africa, will discuss key topics including:
Agenda
- The impact of natural hazards on the prevalence of vector-borne diseases.
- Strategies for protecting employees against malaria, yellow fever, and other mosquito-borne threats.
- Practical measures to support the goal of zero malaria and enhance community resilience.
- The essential contributions the private sector can make in the fight against these diseases.
