Our Activities and Highlights in 2023 and Plans and Priorities for 2024
As we come to the end of 2023, we want to thank you – our supporters in Africa and all over the world – for all the work you have done with the African Sepsis Alliance to save lives in Africa over the past year. The work you did made a profound difference.
We have had a very successful year despite several challenges. Our thoughts are with our colleagues from Sudan, who celebrated World Sepsis Day by keeping sepsis improvement activities going despite the devastating war in Sudan. To all our members who continue to save lives amid war in other parts of the continent, you are our heroes!
Please find below summary highlights of last year’s activities:
In 2024, our priority will be to reorganize parts of the governance of the African Sepsis Alliance because we acknowledge that "what has got us here is unlikely to get us to where we need to be…".
We have very ambitious plans as outlined below:
Our priorities for the next year will therefore be to:
Identify funding and appoint a program coordinator/executive director to work with Africa CDC to deliver our collaborative plan
Declare sepsis a health priority for the African continent and develop national action plans for as many countries as possible
Support the STAIRS collaboration and support the transformation of the outputs into improvements in policy and clinical care
We wish you the very best as you celebrate Christmas and New Year with your families.
