Pleased to share my new article exploring the challenges of grounding #decolonisation in a politics of Africaness. It frames decolonisation as a 'politics of belonging' in which the boundaries of Africanity are articulated & contested. 🆓 access this week tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

My mother is a teacher for over 25 years and has nurtured many girls through her role in Guidance and Counselling, History and CRE. She suddenly fell ill and needs your support to continue to educate and empower our children. mchanga.africa/fundraiser/741… #SimamaNaMamaCynthia

I seized this opportunity to emphasize the environmental impact of surgical care. I think promoting sustainable surgical practices in Africa is linked to decolonization as it has to do with diverting from the historically unsustainable practices of the “West” to local knowledge.

I’m grateful to UNOOSA Canadian Space Agency for sponsoring my participation in the ‘23 UNOOSA Space4Women expert meeting. As a Global Surgery fellow UCT Global Surgery, I stress global surgery’s role for gender equality especially in LMICs, where women face numerous challenges accessing healthcare.

Africa has historically fueled industrial revolutions yet not reaping the benefits of these revolutions! Now standing (again) at forefront of the fourth revolution, it is vital to advocate for a paradigm shift by ensuring that health data becomes a catalyst for positive change.

Honored to be one of this year's SGC/IAC Nebula Award recipients. I see this as a giant leap—echoing Neil Armstrong—as it fuels my passion to explore how space-based solutions can revolutionize surgical care in underserved regions. Ad Astra!
