The President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, is hosting the African Health Sovereignty Summit today, Tuesday, August 5, 2025, at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra.

The summit brings together Africa’s political leaders, policymakers, and global health stakeholders to discuss issues of health bordering the African continent.

The landmark initiative will explore bold steps to raise adequate funding to bridge the huge infrastructure gap in the wake of dwindling donor support and policy interventions to subsidise the treatment of deadly chronic diseases, as well as emerging health threats.

Aside from Mahama, a number of African leaders, including former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo and former Liberian President Ellen E. Johnson Sirleaf, are expected to attend the event.

Also at the summit are the Director-General of the World Health Organisation, Dr Tedros A Ghebreyesus, the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Gordon Brown.
