Afrique One-REACH is addressing the lack of sufficient capacity and data in Africa to develop and implement transdisciplinary approaches to combatting some of the world’s most urgent and challenging health threats arising from interactions among people, animals and the environment, including Endemic and Emerging Zoonoses, Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD) and nutritional and Non-Communicable Diseases. 

Through transdisciplinary research, REACH will jointly assess, co-design and test health intervention options in close collaboration with practitioners, communities, civil society and policy makers. As a follow up to Afrique One-ASPIRE, we will support a cohort of 50 competitively and equitably selected fellows to be equipped with contemporary and innovative research tools while working in supportive and empowering research environments.  We will work with African and northern partners to develop the next generation of research leaders who can harness the potential of One Health in Africa. 

Partners:

Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (Ghana), Université de Liège (Belgium), Sokoine University of Agriculture (Tanzania), Kilimanjaro Clinical Research Institute (Tanzania) and the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Switzerland).
