The Africa Center of Excellence for Population Health and Policy (ACEPHAP) at Bayero University, Kano, recently underwent a rigorous international accreditation process. An assessment team from the Agency for Public Health Education Accreditation (APHEA) visited the center on November 11, 2024, to evaluate the quality, relevance, and impact of the Master's in Public Health, Nursing and Policy (MPHNP) and Masters in Maternal Child Health and Policy programs.

The Africa Center of Excellence for Population Health and Policy (ACEPHAP) is proud to welcome a new cohort of 19 talented postgraduate students from Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Gambia, Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Niger Republic. These students have been selected to pursue their Master's degrees in various specialized fields offered exclusively by ACEPHAP.

ACEPHAP’s training workshop is equipping researchers with hands-on skills in genomic surveillance using Oxford Nanopore technology. This cutting-edge approach will help identify drug resistance markers and potential vaccine targets, paving the way for more effective interventions against malaria.

By empowering the next generation of scientists, we're taking significant strides towards a malaria-free future.
