AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Rural Energy: A World Bank-funded regional project has connected 490 communities and brought electricity to nearly 500,000 people across Mali, Guinea-Bissau and The Gambia, continuing despite Mali’s break with ECOWAS. Newborn Health: Guinea-Bissau has cancelled a proposed US-funded hepatitis B vaccine trial involving 14,000 babies after ethical concerns over delaying a WHO-recommended birth dose; police had seized vaccine supplies during an inquiry. Culture: Alain Gomis’ film Dao, a family saga unfolding between a French wedding and an ancestral ceremony in Guinea-Bissau, won the Golden Spike at Spain’s Valladolid film festival. Diaspora: Portugal’s new citizenship rules give nationals of Portuguese-speaking countries, including Guinea-Bissau, a seven-year residency path to citizenship, while many other nationalities face 10 years.
