Reaching the Hard-to-Reach:
Solutions to the Healthcare and Nutrition Crisis in the Lake Chad Region

Years of violent conflict and forced displacement have affected around 17 million people in the Lake Chad Basin, including the regions of north-eastern Nigeria, northern Cameroon, western Chad and southeast Niger. Due to food insecurity and the lack of basic healthcare services, the region is experiencing a widespread health crisis and high malnutrition levels. Accessing the most insecure, remote, and hard-to-reach areas for emergency healthcare service provision and humanitarian assistance is a pressing challenge. Digital and data-driven solutions, such as disease surveillance systems or vaccination trackers, have become an essential part of the response to the health crisis.

Together, eHealth Africa and the German-African Business Association are pleased to host an interactive discussion event that will provide insight into what is happening in the region and look for solutions.
