Attitudes and practices of Sudan’s health sector partners towards strengthening and utilising the national health system components (2015–2022)
While the emphasis on strengthening and utilising a unified national system has gained momentum in discussions among health partners throughout the world, there are evident discrepancies between commitments and practice. Sudan presents an interesting case where the last decade has witnessed major political changes that have influenced health sector partnerships. This study investigates the shifts in attitudes and practices of Sudan’s health secto…
Savoring the service
Latine communities have long faced stark health inequities and systemic barriers to accessing healthcare services. Community health workers (CHWs) serve as a key link between patients and the often-daunting healthcare system, providing crucial health education and support. Despite this important yet demanding role, little is known about CHWs’ personal experiences of community health promotion and how they might draw upon their work for strength a…
The precarious state of community engagement in African clinical trials
Community engagement (CE) is an ethical imperative for clinical trials, yet it is often treated as a peripheral activity rather than a core scientific requirement. In light of the Africa CDC’s mandate to achieve 60% local vaccine production by 2040, establishing robust community engagement frameworks within African clinical trials is vital. We systematically synthesized evidence on CE approaches, with a focus on funding and sustainability, utiliz…
“The satisfaction we get by doing this, you do not get it with any money”
While community volunteers are increasingly recognized for addressing supply-side gaps in healthcare delivery (e.g., provider shortages), their role in mitigating demand-side barriers (e.g., stigma) remains underexplored. This qualitative study investigated the experiences, knowledge, and roles of community volunteers in Goa, India. We examined barriers and facilitators to community-based work, and strategies for integrating community participati…
Stakeholder perspectives on task shifting to prevent mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B
In Vanuatu, the management of hepatitis B is limited to hospital settings whilst antenatal care is decentralised to primary care settings, overseen by nurses and midwives. Scale up of interventions during pregnancy to prevent mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of hepatitis B in Vanuatu therefore requires task shifting of care for hepatitis B. This study aims to understand stakeholder perspectives on task shifting hepatitis B PMTCT interventions…
Re-imagining health research to include the voices of justice-impacted individuals
People with prior justice system involvement experience health disparities, yet are often underrepresented in research. We sought to 1) explore the perspectives of individuals with prior justice involvement regarding research and science and 2) identify barriers to their participation in research. Focus groups with 67 participants from five advocacy groups across the United States revealed interest in research participation. To enable participati…
Female community health volunteers’ knowledge and confidence in providing community-based diabetes self-management support in Nepal
Self-management support by community health workers, referred to as Female Community Health Volunteers (FCHVs) in Nepal, can enhance diabetes care in resource-constrained settings. We assessed FCHVs’ knowledge, perceived self-efficacy, and barriers to supporting diabetes self-management before and after training. Guided by the Health Belief Model, we conducted a biphasic, Qual + quan, concurrent, embedded mixed-methods evaluations among 28 FCHVs …
Towards an international research agenda for public health advocacy
Advocacy is a core function of public health practice and is essential for advancing population health, whether by promoting preventative measures or encouraging evidence-based policy reform. However, public health advocates, globally, face considerable barriers, including limited knowledge of effective strategies, resource constraints (such as time and funding), low prioritisation within organisations, and interference from powerful commercial i…
Leading from behind the scenes
Community birth attendants (CBAs) represent an insufficiently integrated resource in childhood immunization programs, particularly in urban slum communities where healthcare access remains challenging. Their role as birth attendants has been well documented, however, understanding their role in infant vaccination uptake is crucial for improving immunization uptake and child welfare. This study explored the knowledge of CBAs about infant immunizat…
Vaccination experiences and decision-making in older adult Korean immigrants living in Canada
Older adult immigrants face unique challenges in accessing healthcare and preventive health measures, including vaccines. While Asian immigrants in North America generally report high vaccine uptake, studies suggest that Korean immigrants may have lower willingness to vaccinate and experience barriers to healthcare utilization. Understanding the vaccination experiences and decision-making processes of this population is critical to addressing dis…
“…I feel like I am just staying here waiting for death”
Refugees and migrants with advanced illness frequently face fragmented and inconsistent access to health services. Structural barriers delay symptom management, undermine continuity of care, and limit access to palliative support. A clearer understanding of their lived experiences is essential to inform equitable health system responses and inclusive models of care. This study explored the lived experiences of individuals with advanced illness in…
