Experiencing Education at the Margins of the City
Through the ethnographic study of urban margins, this article explores the questions of statecraft that involve evoking aesthetic governmentality to ascribe illegalities onto the informalities of the margins. With an aim to understand the lived experiences of children, the article examines the role that education plays in maintaining the unequal urban order, and how it exists as a potent site for exploring the order-making function of the state. …
Health disparities among Deaf communities from Colombia
INTRODUCTION: Despite efforts to improve health equity, there is still limited knowledge about the number and characteristics of people with disabilities, particularly the Deaf community. Our aim is to use linguistically and culturally adapted research instruments to measure key health indicators and priorities within the Deaf community from a low- and middle-income country-Colombia, contributing to a better understanding of health inequities.

Covid-19 pandemic in Africa’s island nations during the first 9 months
The geographic and economic characteristics unique to island nations create a different set of conditions for, and responses to, the spread of a pandemic compared with those of mainland countries. Here, we aimed to describe the initial period of the COVID-19 pandemic, along with the potential conditions and responses affecting variation in the burden of infections and severe disease burden, across the six island nations of the WHO’s Africa region…
An in-depth statistical analysis of the Covid-19 pandemic’s initial spread in the WHO African region
During the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, sub-Saharan African countries experienced comparatively lower rates of SARS-CoV-2 infections and related deaths than in other parts of the world, the reasons for which remain unclear. Yet, there was also considerable variation between countries. Here, we explored potential drivers of this variation among 46 of the 47 WHO African region Member States in a cross-sectional study. We described five indi…
Leveraging human resources for outbreak analysis
Emerging infectious diseases are a growing threat in sub-Saharan African countries, but the human and technical capacity to quickly respond to outbreaks remains limited. Here, we describe the experience and lessons learned from a joint project with the WHO Regional Office for Africa (WHO AFRO) to support the sub-Saharan African COVID-19 response.In June 2020, WHO AFRO contracted a number of consultants to reinforce the COVID-19 response in member…
Covid-19 mortality in women and men in sub-Saharan Africa
INTRODUCTION: Since sex-based biological and gender factors influence COVID-19 mortality, we wanted to investigate the difference in mortality rates between women and men in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). METHOD: We included 69 580 cases of COVID-19, stratified by sex (men: n=43 071; women: n=26 509) and age (0-39 years: n=41 682; 40-59 years: n=20 757; 60+ years: n=7141), from 20 member nations of the WHO African region until 1 September 2020. We com…
