Over the last several decades, less than 3% of all trials conducted globally have taken place in Africa- the majority are in 🇿🇦 or 🇪🇬. While this proport% continues to grow–rising to nearly 4% in 2021, this vastly underrepresents populat% of Africa relative to other regions. ~1/4
Kick off for a 3-day meeting on Optimizing, Efficiency and Impact in the African Clinical Trial Ecosystem, from 16-18 May 2023, in Cape Town, South Africa.
