Who we are
An African Alliance Committed to Men’s Health
Eagle Africa Association is an African organization committed to promoting men’s health, preventing prostate conditions, and raising awareness of major urological and andrological health issues across Africa.
Our work follows a public health approach based on health education, prevention, awareness, screening promotion and referral to qualified healthcare professionals and appropriate health facilities.
We believe that better health information and greater awareness among men and their communities can contribute to earlier detection of certain conditions and greater attention to men’s health.
Why we exist
Making men’s health a priority
Men’s health remains an insufficiently addressed area in many African communities.
Some urological, andrological and prostate-related conditions may remain unknown, overlooked or surrounded by silence for too long.
Eagle Africa Association seeks to help change this situation by creating an environment in which men can:
- Better understand their health
- Recognize the importance of prevention
- Feel more comfortable discussing men’s health issues
- Seek medical advice when appropriate
- Access reliable health information
- Receive guidance toward qualified healthcare professionals
Our mission
To promote a sustainable culture of men’s health prevention across Africa
To achieve this mission, the Association develops and supports initiatives designed to:
Raise Awareness
Engage men, families and communities around men’s health challenges.
Prevent
Encourage healthy behaviors and appropriate medical consultation.
Promote Early Detection
Encourage appropriate early detection approaches in accordance with healthcare professionals’ recommendations.
Refer
Help facilitate access to qualified healthcare professionals and appropriate health facilities.
Mobilize
Build partnerships among healthcare professionals, institutions, organizations, businesses, media and communities.
