Many governments spend millions of $ to strengthen their health workforce through education interventions. This study by @SikhumbuzoAMab1 evaluates policies in Eswatini, South Africa, Botswana & Lesotho. @UNSWMedicine @georgeinstitute @WHO @Amref_Worldwide @WalterSisuluUni

How many of us would work without pay? Most CHWs work on no or very low pay. It’s an equity + public health + labour rights based issue. Thank you @join_chic for your work on this 🙏🏾 @CHWTWG1 @chwcentral
A minimum of six million women work unpaid or grossly underpaid in community health roles, to prop up health systems. The debate around professional CHWs is more than a public health issue. It’s also inherently a gender equity issue. #IWD2024 joinchic.org/resources/the-p…
