The Resilient Health Systems for Emergency Preparedness (RHeSEP) Project is a regional initiative implemented by the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Secretariat to strengthen health security and emergency preparedness across the SADC region. The project has a total cost of UA 7.70 million, financed by a UA 6.97 million grant from the African Development Fund under the Regional Public Goods window and a UA 0.74 million in-kind contribution from SADC. The project supports six priority ADF countries—Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, and Zimbabwe—while strengthening regional systems that benefit all SADC member states. The initiative focuses on improving laboratory capacity, strengthening medicines regulatory harmonization and pooled procurement, enhancing regional health data systems, and building institutional capacity for coordinated responses to health emergencies. The project aligns with the Bank’s Ten-Year Strategy (2024–2033), the High 5 priority “Improve the Quality of Life for the People of Africa,” the Strategy for Quality Health Infrastructure in Africa (2022–2030), and regional frameworks such as the SADC Regional Indicative Strategic Development Plan (2020–2030) and the Strategic Partnership for Health Security and Emergency Preparedness.
