Minister Amadou Hott SE Philippe Lalliot, Ambassador of France to Senegal, proceeded, Thursday June 16, 2022, to the signing of a financing agreement relating to the Support Program for the recovery of the pharmaceutical industry. The total amount is 25 million euros, or 16,4 billion FCFA, in the form of a loan.
The question of the continent's health and pharmaceutical sovereignty has become a priority following the harmful effects of the COVID-19 crisis and the support of the French Embassy supports the government's efforts in this direction.
As a reminder, AFD contributed through a donation to the development phase of the MADIBA project, but also to the financing of the new project for the production of vaccines against yellow fever, by the IPD, Africamaril.
