Bridging the Healthcare Gap in Sudan

Our Partner: Health Home
Allowing easy access to health insights with the Health Home Assistant
Africa is currently facing a concerning rise in mortality rates attributed to both communicable and non-communicable diseases. This alarming trend is also evident in Sudan as a result of inadequate healthcare infrastructure coupled with a lack of awareness. Communicable diseases such as malaria, diarrhea, yellow fever, and HIV/AIDS continue to pose significant risks to the population. Additionally, non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and respiratory diseases are on the rise due to changing lifestyles associated with economic growth. Technology based solutions are the key to bridge the health equity gap and improve health outcomes.
