Reciprocity in global health: How successes from the global south can inform global health interventions in Canada and the U.S
Global health has traditionally functioned as a project of high-income countries (HICs) addressing health challenges in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This “outward facing” orientation has created conceptual and operational boundaries that obscure the persistence of health inequities within HICs and perpetuates the false assumption that resource-rich nations have resolved fundamental health equity challenges in their own countries.

Barriers and facilitators to antibiotic stewardship in Nigeria’s private healthcare sector: A qualitative interview study with national health and regulatory interest holders
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a growing global health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) such as Nigeria, where stewardship efforts have largely overlooked the private healthcare sector.

We conducted a qualitative study consistin…
Healthcare seeking behavior among patients visiting public primary and secondary healthcare facilities in an urban Indian district: A cross-sectional quantitative analysis
In this work, we examined healthcare seeking behavior (HSB) of patients visiting public healthcare facilities in an urban context.

Despite these challenges, the TB community can draw on the comprehensive approaches used to manage COVID-19 to help restore progr…
