African healthcare innovation: An untapped resource?

Healthcare systems across the world are in need of innovations that can achieve more with less, for more people. African nations have always been good partners for high-income institutions as they develop and test new ideas. However, they are now at the forefront of developing novel approaches to healthcare, grounded in community-centered approaches, but which also capitalize on the potential of digital healthcare. African healthcare leaders should be bold in realizing their own potential, and leaders from high-income countries must be open to innovations emerging from non-traditional sources.
