AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Mental Health Access: Togo is tackling a serious shortage of mental health specialists, with WHO noting fewer than 10 licensed psychiatrists for a population of over 8 million, while Zébé-Aného Psychiatric Hospital strains beyond capacity and stigma still delays care. Hospital Upgrades: Calls are growing to rehabilitate and re-equip Nkwanta South Government Hospital in Ghana’s Oti Region, including modern theatre and X-ray diagnostics, as infrastructure decay and equipment gaps limit quality treatment for patients from both sides of the border. Regional Health Funding: Togo is set to benefit from a new $14.26 million West African health systems strengthening grant, including a cross-border “One Health” lab in Togo and stronger disease surveillance and emergency preparedness across ECOWAS. Food Security for the Lean Season: WFP and the Togolese government are preparing for the June–August lean season in northern Togo, warning that up to 332,000 people could face acute food insecurity without assistance. Disaster Preparedness: A national multi-hazard simulation exercise, “Mia Dzrado 2026,” is testing flood, cholera, accidents, fires, chemical spills and radiological response coordination in Bas-Mono. Public Health & Safety Planning: These efforts come as Togo continues building resilience through health system reforms and emergency readiness.
