About

Independent reporting on African health.

Health Issues Africa is a thought-leadership hub from FINN Partners' Africa health practice — original reporting, expert perspectives, and analysis on the policy, science, and storytelling shaping the continent's health future.

What we do

A hub for three things:

An annual trends report

The Africa Health Media Trends Report tracks how the continent's health journalism is evolving — its newsrooms, its funding, its audience.

A podcast

Voices In African Health features in-depth conversations with the clinicians, researchers, journalists, and policymakers shaping the continent's health story.

A team blog

Insights brings together field perspectives and analysis from FINN's Africa health team and contributors across the continent.

The team

FINN Africa health practice

Health communicators based in Nairobi, Casablanca, Dakar, Cape Town, and London. Our team has worked across HIV/AIDS, malaria, NCDs, sexual and reproductive health, mental health, and global pandemic response — for governments, multilateral organizations, NGOs, and private-sector clients across the continent.

Individual team profiles coming soon. In the meantime, see thought pieces and podcast episodes by team members across the site.

A FINN Partners initiative

Part of FINN's global health practice

FINN Partners is one of the world's largest independent communications agencies, with a global health practice that has shaped some of the biggest health campaigns of the past two decades. Health Issues Africa is our editorial home for the continent's health story.
