Advancing the concept of community positive health through participatory research in marginalized communities in Kenya
There have long been global calls to strengthen community-led and -engaged approaches in public health, but most community health interventions are still driven by governments and other external actors to reduce narrow measures of disease burden. Despite theoretical advancements in salutogenesis and positive health, these concepts remain underapplied in understanding and supporting collective health and wellbeing at the community level. This empi…
Applying a multi-layered, mixed methods approach to evaluate technology and workforce interventions in Kenyan neonatal units
Understanding how to best implement healthcare innovations in resource-poor settings requires complex interventions and evaluations, often straining existing healthcare systems. We aimed to address this challenge in our Kenyan neonatal intervention research by deeply integrating stakeholder engagement, applying layered methodologies, and leveraging our research team's diverse expertise. This paper reports on the design and implementation of a res…
Scoping review of interventions to improve continuity of postdischarge care for newborns in LMICs
INTRODUCTION: Neonatal mortality remains significant in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) with in-hospital mortality rates similar to those following discharge from healthcare facilities. Care continuity interventions have been suggested as a way of reducing postdischarge mortality by better linking care between facilities and communities. This scoping review aims to map and describe interventions used in LMICs to improve care contin…
Understanding the Lived Experience of Children With Type 1 Diabetes in Kenya
Focusing only on biomedical targets neglects the important role that psychosocial factors play in effective diabetes self-management. This study aims to understand the lived experiences of children with Type 1 Diabetes (T1DM) in Kenya. Children ( n = 15) participated in focus group discussions and photo diary data collection. Focus group discussions and semi-structured interviews were also conducted with caregivers ( n = 14). We describe an adapt…
Planetary health justice
The planetary health concept describes the relations between health and climate. The inequities that connect these two domains are experienced most by low-resource and vulnerable populations, e.g. the impact of drought on subsistence livelihoods and associated mental health issues. Climate justice and health justice are framed through capabilities and integrated with ecofeminist approaches. Spatial justice is introduced as the ability to conceptu…
A Qualitative Study of Women’s Lived Experiences of Conflict and Domestic Violence in Afghanistan
This article empirically explores women's lived experiences of domestic violence and conflict in Afghanistan. A thematic analysis of 20 semistructured interviews with women living in safe houses produced three main themes about the relationship between conflict and domestic violence: (a) violence from loss of patriarchal support, (b) violence from the drug trade as an economic driver, and (c) violence from conflict-related poverty. We discuss the…
