A snapshot of Angola's health system, emergency-risk profile and MPA preparedness status.

Brief Angola joined the HEPRR-MPA programme in 2025. With a population of 18.1M and its capital at Mogadishu, it carries a composite emergency-risk band of "Very High". Federal member states with a rebuilding public system; NPHRL anchors national reference testing. Cholera/AWD, measles, drought and famine risk, conflict, and porous land and sea borders across the Horn. This profile consolidates the country context that frames every preparedness decision — health-system structure, the hazards most likely to escalate, and the current state of IHR core capacities — into a single citable page that anchors the country knowledge page and feeds the regional dashboard.
