How health securitisation shapes health system priorities
Health securitisation – i.e., framing health issues as security issues or as threats– is growing in contemporary global health discourse. Given the power disparity between the actors who can frame a health issue or on whose behalf issues are framed and the actors who may experience the consequences of such framing, it is crucial to understand how ‘health security’ framing impacts health system prioritisation. We conducted a realist synthesis on h…
Barriers to cervical cancer screening among refugee women
Cervical cancer disproportionately affects vulnerable populations including refugee women. Understanding the barriers to cervical cancer screening uptake in this group is crucial to inform targeted interventions and improve health outcomes. This review aimed to identify barriers hindering their access to cervical cancer screening. Five databases - Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and SCOPUS - were searched in December 2024. The inclusion c…
Community-based solutions for chronic disease management during natural disasters
Despite rapid increases in both the burden of chronic disease and climate change-driven extreme weather events globally, the need to jointly address these crises remains largely overlooked. Chronic diseases require ongoing and often specialized care, which natural disasters disrupt by increasing physiological stressors and disrupting access to healthcare facilities, food, shelter and medications. Community-based solutions can mitigate these healt…
We are not doing enough
Most public health practitioners and researchers in Australia acknowledge the poorer health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders peoples relative to non-Indigenous Australians; some work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities; however, few acknowledge the role that public health itself has played in the plight of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders peoples throughout Australia’s colonial history. In this essa…
Subcutaneous injections of penicillin (SCIP)
Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) and rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remain significant health issues for Māori and Pacific communities in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ). Subcutaneous injection of penicillin (SCIP) enables injections to be given 10-weekly as an alternative to the standard four-weekly intramuscular (IM) injections. As part of a clinical trial involving participants with ARF who have been on SCIP for at least one year, we aim to explore treatm…
Urban public space initiatives and health in Africa
Public space initiatives (PSIs) in African cities can significantly promote health and social well-being, yet their implementation and impact are unknown across the continent. There is a substantial gap in literature on PSIs in African countries, with most studies concentrated in wealthier cities and lacking comprehensive assessments of long-term health impacts. The objective of this study was to synthesise evidence on the typology, location, fea…
