Selling spillover
Southeast Asia faces increased risks of zoonotic spillover as a major driver of emerging infectious diseases and pandemics, due to unprecedented environmental change, biodiversity loss and wildlife trade. Within this context, wildlife markets are locations where zoonotic pathogen spillover risks are amplified. However, there is limited understanding of human operational dynamics, hygiene, and the regulatory environment in these markets. We employ…
Youth insights on menstrual health and hygiene in Burkina Faso; a comparison of written versus spoken qualitative text
Understanding girls’ lived experiences with menstruation is essential yet can be challenging given the taboo nature of the topic. While diaries have not previously been employed as a data collection method among girls in this setting, the use of diaries could generate unique insights due to their private, reflective, and participant-led nature. Our study aimed to explore the menstrual health and hygiene experiences of schoolgirls in Burkina Faso,…
Vaccine preferences and their role for vaccine confidence and uptake
Vaccine confidence and uptake are influenced by individuals' preferences regarding vaccine composition, quality, or administration pathways. However, literature synthesizing available qualitative insights into individuals' vaccine preferences remains limited. We therefore conducted a meta-ethnographic systematic review of the qualitative literature on vaccine preferences to identify opportunities for enhancing vaccine confidence and uptake. We im…
Representation, activism, health promotion, and communication
This viewpoint advocates for the inclusion of art in global health discourse and practice. We explore four areas in which art can be leveraged to improve global health: (1) to amplify disenfranchised voices, (2) to advance social justice activism, (3) to strengthen communities and individuals, and (4) to improve global health communication. Drawing on community-driven art initiatives, we argue for an inclusive approach that respects diverse cultu…
Newness, unfamiliarity, and cultural beliefs; social and behavioural barriers to Covid-19 vaccination among the Dumagat Remontado, an Indigenous population in the Philippines
Systematic Extraction and Qualitative Framing Analysis of Health-Related Online Media Content
Scientific guidance for systematically searching, extracting, and qualitatively analyzing large-yet-meaningful amounts of media data remains limited, particularly in the context of health research where analyzing media communication can facilitate our understanding of public health discourses. To address this gap, and building on our experience in qualitatively analyzing global health media data, we developed a 5-step FOCUS approach, which entail…
Messy but worth it
Human-centred design (HCD) is an approach to problem-solving that prioritises understanding and meeting the needs of the end-users. Researchers and designers practice empathic listening as users share their perspectives, thereby enabling a variety of stakeholders to cocreate effective solutions. While a valuable and, in theory, straightforward process, HCD in practice can be chaotic: Practitioners often struggle to navigate an excess of (often co…
A methodological review of solicited diaries as a qualitative tool in health research in low- and middle-income countries
Diaries have served as a vehicle to document personal narratives and as a research tool. However, diaries remain relatively underutilized in most research disciplines, particularly in the field of global health. This review aimed to explore the application, utility, and methodological potential of diaries as a qualitative data collection tool in the health sector within low- and middle-income countries. We applied a search string across several d…
Conflicting and complementary notions of responsibility in caregiver’s and health care workers’ vaccination narratives in the Philippines
Background: Vaccine hesitancy (VH) continues to pose a public health threat globally. Understanding the attitudes and perceptions about vaccination of key stakeholders in vaccine decision-making (such as health care workers (HCWs) and caregivers) about vaccination can pave the way toward novel approaches to bolster vaccine confidence. In this study, we explored the role of notions of responsibilities among HCWs and caregivers in shaping vaccinati…
Knowledge and trust of mothers regarding childhood vaccination in Rwanda
The majority of parents in Rwanda had both good knowledge of-and good trust regarding childhood vaccination. Public health strategies to promote vaccination, education programmes as well as improved communication tools between health care professionals/traditional leaders/religious leaders and parents need to be considered to achieve favourable vaccination attitudes and practices for all parents in Rwanda
The acceptance of Covid-19 vaccines in Rwanda
The first reported case of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Rwanda occurred on March 14 2020. By the end of July 2024, a total of 133,518 individuals had tested positive for the infection, resulting in 1,468 deaths and 132,039 had fully recovered. The success of COVID-19 elimination in Rwanda hinges on the public's level of acceptance of the COVID-19 vaccination. Although COVID-19 is no longer a pandemic anymore, the World Health Organisati…
Human-centred design bolsters vaccine confidence in the Philippines
BACKGROUND: The public's confidence in vaccinations has eroded, and anti-vaccination movements have gained traction around the world, including in the Philippines. 'Salubong', a Filipino term, refers to welcoming someone back into one's life and elicits ideas about friendship and family relationships. We extended this concept to vaccines in efforts to design an intervention that would re-welcome vaccines into homes. METHODS: Using human-centred d…
Bargaining and gendered authority
INTRODUCTION: Targeted vaccination promotion efforts aimed at building vaccine confidence require an in-depth understanding of how and by whom decisions about vaccinating children are made. While several studies have highlighted how parents interact with other stakeholders when discussing childhood vaccination, less is known about the way in which vaccination uptake is negotiated within households. METHODS: We conducted 44 in-depth interviews wit…
Misinformation, infighting, backlash, and an ‘endless’ recovery; policymakers recount challenges and mitigating measures after a vaccine scare in the Philippines
BACKGROUND: Vaccine scares undermine longstanding global health achievements. Remarkably little data has documented the lived experiences of policymakers working amidst vaccine scares and navigating their fallout. As a result, chances and challenges of large-scale national recuperation efforts are poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore the perspectives of policymakers involved in ongoing efforts to boost vaccine confidence in th…
Selfie consents, remote rapport, and Zoom debriefings
In-person interactions have traditionally been the gold standard for qualitative data collection. The COVID-19 pandemic required researchers to consider if remote data collection can meet research objectives, while retaining the same level of data quality and participant protections. We use four case studies from the Philippines, Zambia, India and Uganda to assess the challenges and opportunities of remote data collection during COVID-19. We pres…
Scared, powerless, insulted and embarrassed
BACKGROUND: Several studies have highlighted that vaccine hesitancy (VH) is among the most important threats to global health, especially in low- and middle-income countries, including the Philippines. However, there is a dearth of literature exploring family experiences of-or concerns related to-childhood vaccinations that gives voice to vaccine hesitant caregivers (VHCs) of small children. Here, we present insights from VHCs from the Philippine…
Nudging toward vaccination
Key challenges of health care workers in implementing the integrated management of childhood illnesses (IMCI) program
Background: Several evaluative studies demonstrate that a well-coordinated Integrated Management of Childhood Illnesses (IMCI) program can reduce child mortality. However, there is dearth of information on how frontline providers perceive IMCI and how, in their view, the program is implemented and how it could be refined and revitalized.Purpose: To determine the key challenges affecting IMCI implementation from the perspective of health care work…
