Diabetes and hypertension are chronic diseases that are a huge public health issue in Africa. Still today, patients remain under-diagnosed due to lack of disease awareness and poor access to dedicated infrastructures. Since 2014, Sanofi supported the setup of 31 dedicated medical structures called diabetes and hypertension clinics in Cameroon, Senegal and Cote d’Ivoire in partnership with local authorities. This project aims to improve the management of diabetes and hypertension through capacity building: providing material for diagnostic and care, training health care professionals.

To reinforce this project, a digital tool has recently been launched in order to capture patients data at selected clinics that will become reference centers.
