AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Iboga and Health: US drug companies are eyeing ibogaine, a compound from Gabon’s sacred iboga plant, for possible use in addiction and mental health treatment. Research is still early, and Gabonese communities warn that rising demand could worsen overharvesting: one conservation group estimates that 85–90% of wild iboga has already disappeared or been poached. Regional Malaria: Equatorial Guinea is preparing a campaign to distribute more than 500,000 mosquito nets across its mainland and Annobón, as it expands malaria-control efforts beyond Bioko Island. The country’s porous border with Gabon makes the regional push relevant to public health efforts nearby.
