In our second Science Social Hour, we talk with Punam Amratia, PhD, and Fredros Okumu, PhD, about this timely and important topic for a unique science social hour. From the front lines of malaria control to working with international health organizations and local governments, Drs. Amratia and Okumu share firsthand experiences and bold insights on funding and aid, #capacitybuilding, and what it really takes to create lasting impacts in the #globalhealth arena.
Join us as we explore how global health was evolving to be more #data-driven, #sustainable, and locally led across Africa, just 5 months ago. This episode was recorded before the US Government changed many of its policies and support of global health initiatives. Already, a lot of what is described in this episode is being affected by these changes.
