Antibiotic stewardship and antimicrobial resistance in conflict-affected Sudan
Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global concern, the drivers and consequences of which are exacerbated by poverty and inequality, with Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) bearing the highest rates, particularly Sub-Saharan Africa. Armed conflict further exasperates problem, by damaging healthcare systems, limiting access to essential medicines, and increasing the use of antibiotics in uncertain environments. This study sough…
Traditional healing and mycetoma management in East Sennar State (Sudan)
Traditional healers play a crucial role in sustaining access to care for people with mycetoma in Sudan. Effective collaboration between health systems will require addressing the structural and relational power imbalances that currently hinder integration.

‘My appetite and mind would go’
The academic literature on personal experiences of climate-induced wellbeing erosion (often conceptualised as ‘non-economic losses and damages’) is still limited. This represents a serious climate policy gap that hinders support for marginalised people across the world including Indigenous People.

Global value chains for medical gloves during the Covid-19 pandemic
This paper evaluates ways in which labour issues in global value chains for medical gloves have been affected by, and addressed through, the COVID-19 pandemic. It focuses on production in Malaysia and supply to the United Kingdom's National Health Service and draws on a large-scale survey with workers and interviews with UK government officials, suppliers and buyers. Adopting a Global Value Chain (GVC) framework, the paper shows how forced labour…

Traumatic experiences lived during the differentphases of the migration process make people seeking asylumvulnerable to mental health conditions, including post-traumaticstress and depression.

Instruments of health and harm
Many healthcare goods, such as surgical instruments, textiles and gloves, are manufactured in unregulated factories and sweatshops where, amongst other labour rights violations, workers are subject to considerable occupational health risks. In this paper we undertake an ethical analysis of the supply of sweatshop-produced surgical goods to healthcare providers, with a specific focus on the National Health Service of the United Kingdom. We contend…
Introduction
Neoliberalism has economic, political, sociocultural, and environmental consequences that are known to cause imbalances across the globe (Navarro, 2020). The financial crisis that began in 2008 in the economic centers of the Global North has been steadily spreading to low- and middle-income countries, including much of Latin America. Political leaders around the world are unable to confront the contradictions of market-led forms of development th…
