Overview

President Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema announced a 55 billion FCFA investment to strengthen Gabon’s national healthcare system. The initiative aims to modernize medical infrastructure and improve access to quality care.

A primary component of this funding involves 44 billion FCFA dedicated to upgrading the country’s technical medical platform.
