Il est des distinctions qui honorent une carri\u00e8re. D’autres qui honorent un continent.<\/p>\n

L’\u00e9lection du Professeur Justin Lewis D\u00e9nakpo \u00e0 l’Acad\u00e9mie nationale de m\u00e9decine de France appartient \u00e0 cette seconde cat\u00e9gorie. Elle d\u00e9passe le parcours exceptionnel d’un homme pour devenir le symbole d’une Afrique scientifique qui s’affirme, innove et contribue pleinement \u00e0 l’avancement des connaissances m\u00e9dicales.<\/p>\n

Longtemps, la recherche africaine a souffert d’un manque de visibilit\u00e9, de financements insuffisants et d’une faible repr\u00e9sentation dans les grandes institutions internationales. Pourtant, les chercheurs africains n’ont jamais cess\u00e9 de produire des travaux de qualit\u00e9, souvent dans des conditions particuli\u00e8rement exigeantes. Ils ont d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 des solutions adapt\u00e9es aux r\u00e9alit\u00e9s locales, form\u00e9 des g\u00e9n\u00e9rations de professionnels de sant\u00e9 et particip\u00e9 aux grandes avanc\u00e9es de la m\u00e9decine mondiale.<\/p>\n

L’\u00e9lection du Pr D\u00e9nakpo rappelle que l’excellence n’a ni fronti\u00e8re ni nationalit\u00e9. Elle montre \u00e9galement que l’Afrique ne doit plus \u00eatre consid\u00e9r\u00e9e uniquement comme un terrain d’application des innovations m\u00e9dicales venues d’ailleurs, mais comme un v\u00e9ritable laboratoire d’id\u00e9es, de d\u00e9couvertes et de leadership scientifique.<\/p>\n

Cette reconnaissance doit aussi nous interpeller. Nos pays doivent investir davantage dans les universit\u00e9s, les centres hospitaliers universitaires, les laboratoires de recherche et la formation des jeunes chercheurs. Les talents existent. Ils ont simplement besoin d’un environnement favorable pour s’exprimer pleinement.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 travers cette distinction, c’est toute une g\u00e9n\u00e9ration de m\u00e9decins, de sages-femmes, de chercheurs et d’\u00e9tudiants africains qui re\u00e7oit un message d’espoir : l’excellence est possible, la reconnaissance internationale est accessible et les plus hautes institutions scientifiques du monde peuvent s’ouvrir aux comp\u00e9tences africaines.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 Afiya, nous saluons chaleureusement le Professeur Justin Lewis D\u00e9nakpo. Son parcours est une source d’inspiration. Son \u00e9lection est une victoire pour le B\u00e9nin, pour l’Afrique et pour tous ceux qui croient en une m\u00e9decine d’excellence au service des populations.<\/p>\n
