Building Sustainable Local Capacity for Global Health Research in West Africa
Conclusions Research funding and training opportunities in Ghana and Nigeria remain inadequate. Recommendations We recommend systems-level changes in mentoring, collaboration, and funding to drive the global health research agenda in these countries. Additionally, research training programs should be evaluated not only by numbers of individuals graduated but also by numbers of independent investigators and grants funded. Through equitable collaborations, infrastructure, and mentoring, West Africa can match the rest of Africa in impactful global health research. (Source: Annals of Global Health)
