    Open AccessPierrette Ngutete Mukundwa, Barnabas Tobi Alayande et al.ARTICLEBMC Medical Education2026

    BACKGROUND: Health researchers in the Global South face many barriers to scientific publication, including language limitations, lack of access to mentorship, and minimal training opportunities. Scientific writing workshops offer an affordable and effective method for building research capacity. We aimed to evaluate the design, implementation, and effectiveness of a scientific writing workshop implemented by the University of Global Health Equity…

    C Phifer Nicholson, Will Lieber et al.ARTICLEContemporary Justice Review2026

    There is a growing interest in the use of restorative justice-based interventions beyond the traditional ‘encounter framework,’ as put forward in recent work by Fernanda Fonseca Rosenblatt and Craig Adamson. In this essay, we present the case of Prescriptions for Repair (P4R), a collaboration between academia, local government, and community groups that employed a novel, non-encounter, victim-centered restorative justice process to listen to thos…

  • Modeling the global impact of reducing out-of-pocket costs for children’s surgical care

    Open AccessEmily R Smith, Pamela Espinoza et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Over 1.7 billion children lack access to surgical care, mostly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), with substantial risks of catastrophic health expenditures (CHE) and impoverishment. Increasing interest in reducing out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditures as a tool to reduce the rate of poverty is growing. However, the impact of reducing OOP expenditures on CHE remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to estimate the global impa…
