AACC, EPN and ACHAP signed a Trilateral Memorandum of Understanding
In its efforts to empower and facilitate churches to promote wholistic health and healing in Africa, AACC collaborates with Ecumenical Pharmaceutical Network (EPN) and the Africa Christian Health Associations’ Platform (ACHAP) as specialized ecumenical ministries working for the realization of the third sustainable development goal in Africa: Good health and Wellbeing. The three organizations strengthened their long-standing relationship through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed on 26th March 2025 to serve as a framework for their work on promoting health and healing.
EPN is a private not-for-profit organization with the aim of supporting churches and church health systems to provide and promote just and compassionate quality pharmaceutical services across Sub Saharan Africa (SSA). At the same time, ACHAP brings together more than 43 national-level faith-based networks providing health services in 32 SSA countries to share resources, establish technical working groups (TWGs), and provide ongoing training and technical assistance (TA) to its members.
AACC, EPN and ACHAP share a common goal of improving the health and spiritual wellbeing of people in Africa and recognize the potential benefits of leveraging their respective strengths to enhance the services provided to their constituencies. Through the signed MOU, the three organizations will continue joining forces and, combining their expertise, resources, and networks in promoting the well-being of all people at all ages.
