The Wellbeing Foundation Africa (WBFA) is proud to announce its membership in the Global Climate and Health Alliance (GCHA), a global coalition of organisations dedicated to safeguarding public health from the impacts of climate change. By joining forces with GCHA, WBFA reinforces its commitment to advancing climate action and promoting health equity across Africa and beyond. This strategic collaboration underscores WBFA’s steadfast commitment to advancing resilience and planning, understanding the inextricable link between climate change and public health.
Climate change is intensifying the spread of vector-borne diseases and posing risks of malnutrition, waterborne illnesses, and heat stress, contributing to an estimated additional 250,000 deaths annually by 2030-2050, globally. Nigeria and Africa face significant challenges at the intersection of climate change and health, with projections indicating faster temperature rises than the global average and increased vulnerability to extreme weather events. Nigeria is already experiencing the exacerbation of existing health issues, particularly among vulnerable populations such as mothers, children, and adolescents. Yet, Africa accounts for only 3.9% of the world’s emissions of carbon dioxide – the smallest share among all world’s regions.
Her Excellency, Mrs. Toyin Saraki, Founder and President of The Wellbeing Foundation Africa, expressed her delight about the membership, stating, “As we witness the increasing urgency of addressing climate change and its profound impact on public health, the Wellbeing Foundation Africa is honoured to join forces with the Global Climate and Health Alliance. Through this partnership and network, we are poised to amplify our efforts in advocating for policies and programming which prioritise the health and wellbeing of communities most affected by climate-related challenges. Together, we will strive towards building a more sustainable and resilient future for generations to come.”
Dr. Francis Ogbise, Director of Programmes, Impact & Sustainability at The Wellbeing Foundation Africa, underscored the importance of collaboration in addressing complex global issues with an impact-centric approach. He stated, “Joining the Global Climate and Health Alliance aligns perfectly with WBFA’s mission to drive sustainable development and improve health outcomes. By leveraging our collective expertise and networks, we can advocate for evidence-based policies, implement innovative grassroots programmatic solutions, and empower communities to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change on public health. Our membership underscores our commitment to fostering synergistic approaches towards achieving positive impact at scale and setting benchmarks for transformative change.”
Adanna Maduka, Director of Policy, Partnerships & Grants at The Wellbeing Foundation Africa, emphasised the transformative potential of the Alliance, highlighting WBFA’s strategic advocacy with WASH For Wellbeing, as exemplified in the WBFA Dettol Nigeria Hygiene Quest programme and its efforts in developing the facilitation initiative designed to accelerate progress toward water access and security for all people in developing countries with Accelerate Water, formerly Global Water 2020, remarking, “At WBFA, we recognise the critical intersection between climate change and public health. Our membership in the Global Climate and Health Alliance presents an exciting opportunity to catalyse meaningful change by influencing policy decisions, mobilizing resources, and fostering cross-sectoral collaboration. Together, we will work tirelessly to address the root causes of health disparities exacerbated by climate change and advocate for equitable, sustainable solutions that leave no one behind. Our targets include expanding our partnership network, advancing policy initiatives, and scaling up innovative programmes to achieve measurable impact in climate resilience and public health outcomes.”
In alignment with its commitment to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 3 and 6, Good Health and Wellbeing, and Clean Water and Sanitation, the Wellbeing Foundation Africa Dettol Nigeria Hygiene Quest programme has integrated climate education into its curriculum, which reaches children in schools, mothers in health facilities and families in communities across Nigeria. Alongside this, the WBFA Adolescent Skills and Drills, Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) programme, also pioneers a comprehensive approach to hygiene education which encompasses climate awareness and resilience-building strategies. By incorporating climate education into the PSHE and WASH curricula, our climate and health programming aims to equip individuals, particularly youth and mothers, with the knowledge and skills to address the interconnected challenges of climate change and public health. These initiatives highlight a commitment to empowering communities with the tools and resources necessary to thrive in a changing climate while promoting sustainable behaviours for the betterment of present and future generations.
Kehinde Akinsola, Programmes Lead for Kwara State at The Wellbeing Foundation Africa, spoke on the organisation’s dedication to integrating climate education into its programmatic coverage, particularly recognising its impact on the health of pregnant women and lactating mothers. Akinsola emphasised the importance of building the capacity of frontline health workers as educators to transform outcomes for schools, healthcare facilities and individuals in vulnerable communities, such as those in Kwara State, with the knowledge and skills to navigate the challenges posed by climate change and its direct implications on maternal and child health. Through frontline programming and homegrown initiatives, WBFA is committed to raising awareness about climate issues and implementing sustainable solutions that foster resilience and empower communities. Akinsola stated, “Climate education is not just a component of our work; it is a cornerstone of our commitment to building a healthier, more sustainable future for all.”
The Global Climate and Health Alliance welcomed WBFA as a member, acknowledging the foundation’s longstanding commitment to advancing health equity and sustainable development in Africa. Together, WBFA and GCHA will collaborate on initiatives aimed at strengthening climate resilience, promoting climate-smart policies, and empowering communities to build a healthier, more sustainable future.
As the world faces increasingly complex challenges, partnerships like this are essential for driving positive change and ensuring the health and wellbeing of present and future generations.

Her Excellency Toyin Saraki expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to collaborate with AstraZeneca and fellow council members, stating, “I am deeply honoured to join the AstraZeneca Global Breast Cancer Care Council and play a pivotal role in advancing breast cancer care not only in Nigeria and across Africa but importantly, and ambitiously, on a global scale. My commitment lies in bridging the existing inequities in breast cancer outcomes through systematic improvements in access to resource-appropriate and quality services. This includes prioritising health promotion and early detection strategies, ensuring timely diagnosis, and advocating for comprehensive breast cancer management protocols. Together, we will work tirelessly to make tangible progress in the fight against breast cancer and improve the lives of countless individuals and families affected by this disease.”
H.E. Mrs. Toyin Saraki’s appointment underscores her unwavering commitment to improving healthcare outcomes and championing women’s rights globally. As a renowned advocate for maternal and child health, she brings a wealth of experience in healthcare policy, advocacy development and grassroots community engagement to the council. Her leadership will undoubtedly drive impactful initiatives that resonate with diverse communities across the globe.

I am delighted to announce our new The Wellbeing Foundation Africa programme in partnership with the esteemed Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine to advance the EmONC Competency-Based Curriculum for Resident Doctors in OBGYN at the National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria.
This collaboration is aimed at enhancing the availability of quality advanced Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care services in both national and sub-national hospitals. By equipping the National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria with the capacity to deliver advanced EmONC competency-based training, we’re making significant strides in fortifying Nigeria’s healthcare workforce.
Under the Global Health Workforce Programme Grant, funded by the UK Department of Health and Social Care and managed by the Tropical Health and Education Trust – THET, this initiative underscores WBFA’s dedication and efforts in building resilient health systems post-pandemic and advancing Universal Health Coverage goals, including the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3.
This programme will leverage expertise from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (Nigeria Liaison Group) and experienced master trainers in advanced EmONC from LSTM. Implemented on the frontlines by The Wellbeing Foundation Africa in collaboration with LSTM – Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, this transformative partnership will make significant strides in improving maternal and newborn healthcare outcomes across Nigeria, through engaging stakeholders in postgraduate medical education, establishing advanced EmONC Centers of Excellence in Abuja and Lagos, and ensuring sustainable operations for postgraduate OBGYN revision courses.
In the past ten years THET has reached over 100,000 health workers across 31 countries in Africa, the Middle East and Asia in partnership with over 130 UK institutions, and as Founder of THET, Professor Sir Eldryd Parry, once said, if there’s mutual trust and a willingness on both sides to learn from each other, a readiness to adapt and a readiness to try new things then good work will happen. The Wellbeing Foundation Africa is pleased to uphold this commitment across Nigeria, fostering trust with a commitment to both teaching and learning.
In strengthening the capacity of the National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria, this project is funded through the Global Health Workforce Programme, which is funded by the UK department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) for the benefit of the UK and partner country health sectors.
