Roche Africa

Roche Africa Roche is a global pioneer in pharmaceuticals and diagnostics, focused on advancing science to improve people’s lives.

The combined strengths of pharmaceuticals and diagnostics under one roof have made Roche the leader in personalised healthcare. We partner with national, regional and local stakeholders to identify underlying access issues, then work with local partners on solutions that catalyse exponential change. We take a person-centered approach to health, so that the solutions we design together solve the challenges people face at each step of their health journey: from awareness to diagnosis, to treatment and ongoing care. When working with partners for systems-level change across Africa, we know that we can never lose sight of the individual. Together with our partners, we put people at the heart of everything we do, so that we can all support the whole system and care for the whole person.

Unis pour transformer la prise en charge du cancer en Tunisie.

Le 22 août dernier, nous avons donné le coup d’envoi du projet 𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐈𝐑, Engagement Solidaire Pour l’Oncologie et l’ISA, un partenariat tripartite innovant réunissant :

- Le secteur public : l’Institut Salah Azaiez
- Le secteur privé : Roche Tunisie
- La société civile : l’association BEDER

Ce projet vise à impulser une dynamique de collaboration durable en santé, à travers un modèle qui favorise les synergies entre acteurs, pour améliorer concrètement le parcours de soins des patients atteints de cancer, avec trois priorités concrètes :

- Repenser le parcours patient à l’ISA
- Accélérer la digitalisation
- Circuit de Médicaments Simplifié

Nous remercions chaleureusement l’Ambassade de Suisse pour sa confiance et son soutien précieux, ainsi que tous nos partenaires engagés pour un système de santé plus résilient et centré sur les patients.

A survey commissioned by Roche and conducted by GWI across Africa, Asia and Latin America in 2024 shows that most Africans do not know about hepatitis…

…and therefore, do not test for it.

It’s time to talk about it.

Every year, approximately 300 000 Africans die from hepatitis B and C.

The CDC recommends screening all adults aged 18 and older for hepatitis B at least once in their lifetime using a triple panel test.

Hepatitis is preventable, treatable, and in the case of hepatitis C, it is curable.

When you know your status, you can protect yourself and those around you.

Get tested today because everyone deserves to get tested for Hepatitis.



300,000 Africans die from hepatitis B & C each year. Most never get tested.

Everyone deserves a chance to know their status.

TB germs can get into the air when a person with active TB disease of the lungs or throat coughs, speaks, or sings.

The bacteria is more likely to spread in indoor areas or other places with poor air circulation (such as a closed vehicle) than in outdoor areas.

By getting tested regularly, you can stop the spread of TB and potentially save a life.

Clear the air. Get tested today.
