Japan launches global health fund

A 2.2 billion yen ($22 million) Japanese fund for global health launched on 8 April is open to Africans who work in partnership with Japanese researchers and institutions.

“We see the GHIT fund as not the entire solution, rather part of the solution,” says Maruan El Mahgiub, GHIT spokesperson.
