DAR ES SALAAM: THE country’s strengthened diplomatic ties have been credited for the remarkable growth of the Tanzania Health Summit, which now marks its 12th year since inception. At the time President Samia came into office, we had about 500 participants. This reflects not only the interest of the health sector but also the government’s commitment to supporting such platforms,” Dr Tindwa said. He further pointed out that despite external challenges, such as the withdrawal of aid from some partners, Tanzania’s health sector has remained stable, with no shortage of medicines or hospital closures. “This platform is nurturing the next generation of health experts while shaping innovations that improve the lives of Tanzanians,” Dr Tindwa said.
