dc.description.abstractThe policy brief identifies the barriers to local medicine production in East and Southern Africa (ESA) as: lack of supportive policies, capital and skills constraints, gaps in regulatory framework, small market size and weak research and development capacities. It provides highlights from case study work in selected countries, and references potential opportunities for strengthening local production. The paper proposes that African countries strengthen domestic capacities, co-operation between domestic private and public sectors within ESA countries, and regional co-operation across ESA countries to address bottlenecks.en
