The future of primary health care will not be built by innovation alone. It will be built by solutions that are tested in real-world settings, strengthened by evidence, and designed to reach every community. That was the central message of the Africa Primary Health Care Forum (@APHCF_info) 2026, held in Abuja under the theme: "Frontiers in PHC: Technology, NCDs, Nutrition, and Sustainable Financing for Resilience." The forum brought together policymakers, researchers, implementers, and development partners from across Africa to exchange ideas and practical solutions for building stronger, more resilient primary health care systems. SCIDaR was proud to contribute to these conversations through a series of oral and abstract presentations that showcased implementation evidence, innovation, and lessons from our work across the continent. One of the highlights of the forum was the presentation of SCIDaR's Portfolio of Lessons Learned (PoLL) by Dr. Eric Aigbogun, Associate Principal at SCIDaR. Rather than focusing only on successes, the presentation drew from years of implementation experience to share what worked, the challenges encountered, and the lessons that continue to shape how we design and deliver health programmes. Using examples from projects implemented in last-mile communities, the session demonstrated how implementation evidence can improve programme design, strengthen decision-making, and support more sustainable health interventions. Our project leads also shared practical experiences from implementing programmes in underserved communities, providing evidence-informed recommendations grounded in the realities of delivering interventions in complex and resource-constrained settings. Their presentations reinforced an important message. Lasting impact begins with solutions that are responsive to community needs. Another notable presentation featured Paul James, Associate at SCIDaR, who showcased the eCAT tool, an innovative geospatial solution developed to address settlement mapping challenges during polio vaccination campaigns in Nigeria. By generating accurate geospatial data, eCAT enables health authorities to verify vaccination coverage, identify missed settlements, and make more informed decisions to improve campaign quality and accountability. Beyond the presentations, APHCF 2026 served as a valuable platform for learning, collaboration, and knowledge exchange. The discussions reaffirmed that strengthening primary health care requires more than new technologies or policies. It demands partnerships, implementation science, continuous learning, and a commitment to translating evidence into action. As Africa continues to redefine the frontiers of primary health care, SCIDaR remains committed to generating evidence, advancing innovation, and working alongside governments and partners to build resilient health systems that leave no community behind. #APHCF2026 #PrimaryHealthCare #HealthSystems #DigitalHealth #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth #Innovation #SCIDaRimpact
