Tedros Adhanom : (3)

" Like other conflict-affected regions, Africa continues to see religious, ethnic, and politically motivated conflicts. Extremist violence is now entrenched in several parts of the world. Armed conflicts are leading to protracted refugee crises to the scale that has not been seen since World War II. " - Tedros Adhanom

" Strong leadership is essential in the face of health crises. Complex public health emergencies demand a collective response with high-level political and diplomatic engagement at both the national and global levels. " - Tedros Adhanom

" Our biggest achievement was health-sector reform. The success was in making sure that primary health care was the center of gravity in our health system. " - Tedros Adhanom
