This article analyzes various dermatology training programs in Africa by region and country. There is a paucity of dermatologists for the African population. West Africa has a harmonized curriculum, adopted by some anglophone and most francophone countries in the region. Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Morocco, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, and Tunisia have national curricula. In the remaining countries for which information is available and programs exist, a university-specific curriculum is followed. Of the 55 countries in Africa, there is no opportunity for dermatology specialization in 30. Local and ethnic skin curricula content appropriate for Africa, developed through continent-wide collaborations, are recommended.
