The West African Network of Emerging Leaders (WANEL) is a network of junior and mid-level Health Policy and Systems (HPS) practitioners and researchers. WANEL seeks to support the increasing numbers entering the field in practice and research based in West Africa. We do this by creating a space for peer-to-peer exchange and learning, supporting access to research training and leadership opportunities, and linking to related global networks. WANEL connects members across countries, across institutions, and across disciplines.
