The Global Network for Academic Public Health (GNAPH), of which ASPPH is a founding member, released a statement earlier this week calling for peace in Sudan as its healthcare system is on the brink of collapsing.

The Global Network aims to enhance academic public health worldwide through mutual learning and collaborations between academic public health institutions globally to improve and protect the health of people and the planet. The Network is an alliance of seven regional associations that represent schools and programs of public health worldwide, including the African association.

ASPPH fully supports the Global Network in its call to end the violence in Sudan. We will continue to work with the Global Network and others to advocate for peace and to support global public health.
