Equitable imagery in global health
OBJECTIVES: To explore how ethical image-making practices in global health are shaped by issues of agency, power and partnership across the planning, creation and dissemination of imagery and to examine stakeholder perspectives on applying a previously published ethical imagery framework. SETTING: International qualitative study involving stakeholders engaged in the commissioning, production and dissemination of Global Health imagery across multi…
Say my name
In most African societies, particularly among Black people, names are central to people’s identity and are central to how young people develop a sense of self. In the post-colonial-apartheid context of South Africa, which we argue is largely governed by white cultural hegemony, the occurrence of varying subtle forms of racism is inevitable. Name-based microaggressions are one defining feature of the post-colonial-apartheid white cultural hegemoni…
Student counselling and development units in Africa
This scoping review aimed to explore the nature and structure of Student Counselling and Development Units (SCDUs) in Africa towards a better understanding of the role they play in African Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). A comprehensive literature search of ten years (2015–2025) on five electronic databases was conducted. Titles and abstracts were screened, and full articles examined, resulting in 23 studies meeting the inclusion criteria. …
Mentorship as an overlooked dimension of research capacity strengthening
Mentorship in global health remains an overlooked dimension of research partnerships. Commitment to effective mentorship models requires value-driven approaches. This includes having an understanding of (1) what mentorship means across different cultural and hierarchical boundaries in the health research environment, and (2) addressing entrenched power asymmetries across different aspects including funding, leadership, data and outputs, and capac…
Why We Need to Change How We Talk About Infectious Disease
This article builds a case for raising occupational consciousness by critically questioning ahistorical and apolitical uses of battle language, especially when referring to infectious diseases. Words such as invasion, colonization, and resistance are particularly ethically troubling, and this article considers why the social practices our language brings about matter in health care. Dynamic relationships among humans and microbes, as well as meta…
Social Meanings of Attempted Suicide of Men in Bangladesh
Language in Professional Psychology Training
The dominance of white, middle-class, English- and Afrikaans-speaking people within professional psychology, both in training and practice, continues the marginalisation of Black lifeworlds. As part of Black lifeworlds, language in the training of psychologists remains an important, but under-engaged aspect of the effectiveness of psychologists to render services to the South African population. Using Lewis R. Gordon’s work on justice, and drawin…
Elaborations on (a) Decolonising Africa(n)-centred Feminist Psychology
In a previous article we sought to clear up some of the conceptual confusion on African psychology whilst simultaneously engaging with what it entails to do a decolonising African psychology. We dealt with questions such as: Is African psychology identical to psychology in Africa? What is the main dispute between Africa(n)-centred psychology and Euroamerican-centric psychology in Africa? Might ‘Blackening’ psychology decolonise the discipline? An…
Masculinity and Suicide in Bangladesh
Suicide is a serious but under-researched public health problem in Bangladesh. In light of this, we sought to explore the association between masculinities and suicide. We interviewed 20 family members/friends of men who died by suicide across 12 rural areas of the Jhenaidah district, Bangladesh. We found that male suicide was attributed to men's inability to fulfil hegemonic masculine demands such as financial provision and meeting the sexual ne…
Some basic questions about (a) decolonizing Africa(n)-centred psychology considered
Conceptual disagreement remains rife with regard to African psychology with some scholars mistakenly equating it to, for example, ethnotheorizing and traditional healing, while others confound African psychology with Africanization and racialization. Using writing as inquiry, this article aims to clear up some of the conceptual confusion on African psychology while engaging with the issue of a decolonizing African psychology. Accordingly, questio…
Race trouble
BACKGROUND: This research aimed to identify and explore the experiences of Black registrars in their training in the Western Cape's academic hospitals in order to identify structures, practices, attitudes and ideologies that may promote or impede the advancement of Black doctors into specialist medicine. This is justified by the requirement for universities to work towards monitoring and evaluating efforts to create non-discriminatory and inclusi…
A network-level explanation for the differences in HIV prevalence in South Africa's racial groups
Analyses of individual-level risk factors have not been able to adequately explain why HIV has spread so extensively in southern Africa and why this has occurred especially within certain racial or ethnic groups. Using data from a longitudinal study of a representative sample of adolescents aged 14-22 living in Cape Town, South Africa, this article presents evidence of how differences in individual-level risk factors as well as sexual network str…
