The 1st African Conference on Health in Detention

July 3, 2024 - July 5, 2024

This past July, Team Spaulding & our partners from National Penitentiary Service Mozambique (SERNAP) had the privilege of attending and participating in a poster session at the 1st African Conference on Health in Detention, organized by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The inaugural conference took place in Nairobi, Kenya, and centered around African solutions to improving health in detention. Alongside health practitioners and managers from several African countries, we learned about effective prison health policies/practices and share our own experiences researching TB care in Mozambique.
