Continuum of community engagement to ensure access to health care in conflict-affected areas in South Sudan and Central African Republic (CAR)
In conflict-affected settings such as South Sudan and the Central African Republic (CAR), fragile health systems face immense challenges in maintaining service delivery including essential health service access. Community engagement is a critical enabler across the Disaster Risk Management (DRM) cycle—preparedness, response, recovery, and resilience—by fostering trust, inclusivity, and local ownership. This qualitative study draws on data from th…
Understanding lived experience-driven co-production in health and social services
Person-centred care is often illusive in traditionally hierarchical systems. • Co-production equalizes professional and client power by centering lived experience. • These values mobilize professional and client advocacy driving 5 phases of growth. • A co-production mindset germinates, sprouts, blossoms, and propagates to new sites. • A community garden fosters sustainability, helping individual sites weather threats
Mental Health and Wellbeing of Rohingya Refugees
Since 1978, the Rohingya population has faced multiple humanitarian crises, including racial disparities, which significantly escalated during 2017, leading to widespread exile from Myanmar. Reportedly, violence, persecution, and trauma have posed grievous impacts on the mental health of these forcibly displaced people. This scoping review aimed to synthesize the evidence regarding the overall epidemiologic burden of psychological problems of Roh…
Advancing a collective vision for equity‐based cocreation through prototyping at an international forum
BACKGROUND: Cocreation has the potential to engage people with lived and living experiences in the design and evaluation of health and social services. However, guidance is needed to better include people from equity-deserving groups (EDGs), who are more likely to face barriers to participation, experience ongoing or historical harm, and benefit from accessible methods of engagement. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this international forum (CoPro2022) was …
Consent Requirements for Testing Health Policies
Individual informed consent is a central requirement for clinical research on human subjects, yet whether and how consent requirements should apply to health policy experiments (HPEs) remains unclear. HPEs test and evaluate public health policies prior to implementation. We interviewed 58 health experts in Tanzania, Bangladesh and Germany on informed consent requirements for HPEs. Health experts across all countries favored a strong evidence base…
“Thought provoking”, “interactive”, and “more like a peer talk”
Proponents of the newly-developed "deliberative interview" argue that examining complex issues requires more dynamic and engaging interview exchanges. Unlike traditional qualitative interviews, deliberative interviewing champions opinion sharing, active debates and similar speaking times by both sides throughout the interview. Drawing on 20 interviews with health experts in Germany, we examined the process and outcome of deliberative versus conve…
Translating international guidelines for use in routine maternal and neonatal healthcare quality measurement
BACKGROUND: Improving facility-based quality for maternal and neonatal care is the key to reducing morbidity and mortality rates in low- and middle-income countries. Recent guidance from WHO and others has produced a large number of indicators to choose from to track quality. OBJECTIVE: To explore how to translate complex global maternal and neonatal health standards into actionable application at the facility level. METHODS: We applied a two-ste…
