Great discussion with SG of OACPS @MBatraki on our joint commitment to support countries in Africa, Caribbean and Pacific on their resilience and sustainability aspirations.
These countries are disproportionately affected by climate impacts, but are also among those with highest potential on green and blue economy.

Today, Microhaem Scientifics was honoured to host a high-level delegation from the Secretariat of the Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (@OACPS), led by H.E. @MBatraki , Secretary-General, following his official engagement with H.E. President @KagutaMuseveni .
The visit reaffirmed the shared commitment of Uganda and the OACPS to advancing health security through innovation, local manufacturing, and strategic partnerships.
During the visit, we showcased Uganda’s growing capacity in the research, development, and #manufacturing of high-quality in vitro diagnostics, demonstrating how African-led innovation can strengthen resilient health systems and reduce dependence on imported medical technologies.
Our discussions explored opportunities for collaboration in diagnostics, research and development, technology transfer, local manufacturing, and scientific capacity building to expand equitable access to quality healthcare solutions across African, #Caribbean, and #Pacific countries.
As Uganda continues to position itself as a regional hub for life sciences and biomanufacturing, partnerships such as these are essential to accelerating sustainable healthcare, fostering scientific excellence, and advancing the continent’s vision for health sovereignty.
We thank H.E. @Moussa Saleh Batraki and the @PressACP OACPS Secretariat for their visit and look forward to building impactful partnerships that transform innovation into improved health outcomes across the ACP region.
Together, we are demonstrating that world-class health innovations can be designed, developed, and manufactured in Africa for Africa and the world.

Today at State House Entebbe, I welcomed H.E. Moussa Saleh Batraki, Secretary General of the Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS). I told him that Africans in the Caribbean and the indigenous peoples of the Pacific are part of our extended African family. I also support the proposal to relocate the OACPS headquarters from Europe, it would strengthen the Organisation’s independence and better reflect the interests of its member states. Uganda is ready to support this effort and deepen cooperation with the OACPS.
