Local manufacturing of vaccines is a topic which is creating a lot of interest from a vast and diverse combination of stakeholders. Firstly, the private sector has taken the spotlight recently with the announcement of BioNTech to establish a manufacturing plant of the mRNA SARS-Cov-2 vaccine or at least for part of the production process up to the stage of "Fill and Finish". Secondly, major investment development agencies, such as the European Investment Bank (EIB) or the International Finance Corporation (IFC) which is part of the World Bank group. There are also discussions and consultations being held the African level with the African Union of the African CDC (Centres of Disease Control and Prevention). Finally, at country level, traditional development partners have answered the government call. For the health sector, Enabel, as the only agency of a EU member state focusing on the health sector, has established a close relationship with the Rwanda FDA (Rwanda Food and Drugs Authority).

One critical piece required to establish local production of vaccines and other pharmaceutical products in the country is the existence of a strong regulatory agency, which is certified according to World Health Organization (WHO) Global Benchmarking Tool and needs to reach at least Maturity Level 3. Team Europe, led by the European Delegation in Rwanda and supported by Enabel has been allocated this workstream and is working closely with the Rwanda FDA to identify the gaps as well as establish a roadmap to reach the required level. In addition to direct Rwanda FDA support, this initiative has also identified key capacity gaps in the vaccine manufacturing chain and will work with the University of Rwanda (UR) to detail out a package of support for the program of master’s in biotechnology.
