A Non-Profit Organization founded by Dr. Boyiga Bodinga Nuga and Dr. Ayomide Sina-Odunsi

AB Global Health Initiative was Registered in 2015, with its base in Nigeria.

‘AFRICA BETTER’ is a dimension to our name because we envision a better Africa health wise; devoid of diseases. The idea is to improve health and provide a solution which includes human capacity development especially in the youth who are the leaders of tomorrow.

We want a positive change in health around the world with keeping a bird’s eye view on the objectives for Africa.

We hope that through community outreach programs, organizing educative courses, innovative initiatives for health projects, we will achieve our aims, help partner organizations achieve their mission and also educate students about global health issues.

We believe that every person has the right to live a healthy, dignified life. We also believe that everyone has a role to play in advancing social justice through the health equity movement.

Mission Statement

Vision Statement

We visualize a world in which good health – the ability to not only live but flourish – is possible for all people withstanding the Race, Religion, Age, Gender or Sexual Orientation.
