On 28 October 2025, NBI was honoured to host the 2025/2026 Kofi Annan Global Health Leadership Fellows for a dynamic day of learning and collaboration. This prestigious fellowship program, led by the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, aims to strengthen public health leadership across the continent. Representing 18 African nations, the Fellows embody the next generation of public health changemakers, committed to mentorship, innovation, and strategic development.
The NBI program featured a powerful presentation on plasma access in Africa, guiding the Fellows through the entire plasma journey - from donation and the application of Good Manufacturing Practice standards in fractionation, to strategic partnerships enabling Plasma Derived Medicinal Product access across the continent.
The behind-the-scenes tour of the NBI Manufacturing facilities inspired thoughtful dialogue and great interest in NBI’s operations. The enthusiasm and engagement of our visitors were truly evident.
NBI extends its sincere gratitude to the Kofi Annan Global Health Leadership Fellows for their curiosity, engagement, and inspiring presence.
We are grateful to our NBI employees who made this visit a success. Your professionalism, insight, and passion continue to drive progress in global health.

World Trauma Day | 17 October 2025

World Trauma Day reminds us of the importance of fast, compassionate care in saving lives. Trauma is a leading global cause of death and disability, yet many outcomes can be improved through education, timely response, and access to emergency resources.

From managing severe injuries and burn-related shock, effective trauma care helps stabilise patients when every second counts. Today is a call to strengthen readiness, invest in innovation, and ensure that life-saving support reaches those who need it most.
