Today at @RetroReport, New York, we're convening #TheListeningState at #UNGA81, bringing funders, African leaders, and practitioners together around what it takes for a state to listen to its citizens and respond.

Anchored on three questions: what rebuilds trust between citizens and the state; whose voice counts as aid shrinks and technology shifts; and what the next decade of support for public institutions should look like.

Follow the conversation here and on our channels through the evening.

What does it actually take to fix a healthcare system?

In 2001, African leaders signed the Abuja Declaration, pledging 15% of national budgets to health just to keep the sector functional. Yet, Uganda has consistently budgeted under 7%.

As @DrOtileUg points out in our latest episode, Uganda is operating at less than half of the recommended bare minimum. Watch the full episode now to hear Dr. Jacob Otile break down the reality of healthcare financing in Uganda, https://t.co/oLKIRBEK29.

Ruth Aber: There is also a very big gap in terms of training and capacity building so we can explore this gap; this has been worsened by the gender divide.
