The poorest women on earth — including community health workers responding to malaria, COVID-19 and other conditions — subsidize health care globally to the tune of $1 trillion with their unpaid work. That’s larger than the economies of over 150 nations. #InternationalWomensDay

With funding from UK Research and Innovation our India team has developed relationships with waste workers - coming together to collect data and affect change. Catastrophic cuts to aid mean this work may be affected #odacuts #protectresearch #protectgcrf The George Institute for Global Health India ariseconsortium.org/a-letter-to-uk…

Welcome to read our new paper ''Exploring gender, health, and intersectionality in informal settlements in Freetown' tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… Laura Dean SLURC Annie Wilkinson ARISE

In Kenya the UK Research and Innovation grant has enabled us to generate data for decision making in informal urban settlements and implement public participation in research. Will this work continue with reduced funds? #odacuts #protectgcrf #protectukri ariseconsortium.org/a-letter-from-…

🛑Exact same article; two different titles. New Haven Register erroneously implies that #communityhealth work is *inherently* financially sustainable or not. Connecticut Public correctly asserts that public services become sustainable when the public funds them. Media matters! #Healthforall #CHWs

This is horrifying. The US, EU & UK need to help. Urgently. No excuses.

"Perhaps the biggest headline related to gender and CHWs is that the vast majority of CHWs (>70%) are women and the vast majority go unpaid." -Dr. Madeleine Ballard, @chw_impact Executive Director exemplars.health/stories/women-… Frontline Health Workers Coalition Women In Global Health Exemplars in Global Health
