At the 32nd Ordinary Summit of the African Union, heads of state reviewed progress on neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) as part of a presentation by the Prime Minister of Swaziland on progress against malaria. Countries, including Ghana and Togo, were praised by the assembly for achieving elimination goals for some NTDs with more countries encouraged to follow suit. African leaders have also signed up to an initiative that will provide funding to ensure quality health for their populations.
