TDR Global Africa

TDR Global Africa is the regional hub of TDR Global, the international community of scientists and experts collaborating with TDR on research to counter infectious diseases of poverty. On the TDR Global site, you’ll find a vibrant network spanning decades, committed to mentorship, capacity building, and cross-disciplinary partnerships. 

As the African arm of this global effort, TDR Global Africa advances research excellence on the continent by:

• Nurturing local talent through mentorship, training, and career development
• Strengthening regional collaborations among researchers, institutions, and public health actors
• Translating evidence into impact, by linking rigorous science to policies and programs
• Amplifying African voices, ensuring that local priorities guide the global health agenda

Through our work, we aim to make Africa not just a participant but a leader in solving its health challenges, rooted in the rich tradition of scientific inquiry and global solidarity embodied by TDR Global.
