| Abstract: | Competing Interests: The Authors declared no conflict of interest Three decades after the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, Africa has made progress in maternal, reproductive, and child health1. Improvements in healthcare policies, increased access to family planning, and reductions in maternal mortality in some African countries reflect the continent's commitment to advancing women's health1. Significant barriers, however, remain, including high maternal and child mortality rates, limited access to reproductive health services, and the persistence of harmful practices that threaten the well-being of women and girls1. Achieving the key objectives of the Beijing Declaration Platform for Action remains a persistent challenge in Africa. (African Journal of Reproductive Health © 2025.) |

L'amélioration des politiques de santé, l'accès accru à la planification familiale et la réduction de la mortalité maternelle dans certains pays africains reflètent l'engagement du continent à promouvoir la santé des femmes1. Cependant, des obstacles importants subsistent, notamment des taux élevés de mortalité maternelle et infantile, un accès limité aux services de santé reproductive et la persistance de pratiques néfastes qui menacent le bien-être des femmes et des filles1. La réalisation des principaux objectifs de la Déclaration et du Programme d'action de Beijing reste un défi persistant en Afrique. |
