Towards a new stage in Drep.Afrique's partnership to fight sickle cell disease in Senegal
For nearly five years, an important cooperation project has been in place between the NGO Drep.Afrique and Senegal. In particular, successful actions have been undertaken to train doctors and health care staff within the framework of the Franco-Senegalese Campus. Also, with the civil society through a partnership with the Senegalese Association for the fight against sickle cell disease (A.S.D). These various Drep.Afrique initiatives have received support from the AFD, private donations and numerous volunteers.
Following his first meeting with President Macky Sall in June 2019, Robert Hue, President and Founder of Drep.Afrique, has requested a new audience with the President of the Republic of Senegal to give a new impetus to the fight against sickle cell disease on the African continent.
