Another example of how policies that do not take into consideration realities of rural India adversely affect prospects of rural youth. Good that someone looked into it (may be for some other reason). I hope there will be some course correction.

Cultural safety is not about culture, but about respecting the rights of the marginalised and promoting a reflective practice on how we experts are in a way part of the problem due to our privileges and assumptions. @prashanthns @sunilgeorge78 & co write.

Health problems are as much socially constructed as much as they are medically/clinically manifested; if healthcare delivery does not meaningfully engage with #gender it will be grave injustice to the social determination of health and illness

Adivasis, Covid and medical care. A reflective piece by @prashanthns and others.

Listen to this podcast featuring our faculty @prashanthns on Antimicrobial Resistance with a health systems view on Shreya Dasgupta’s “Imagined Tomorrow” #podcast series.

[Health Equity Network India @HealthEquityInd]

Authors working with #Adivasi communities in southern Karnataka write about their experience in engaging with communities to ensure culturally safe care in the context of communities that face historical and ongoing marginalisation

[The India Forum @TheIndiaForum]

How many of us reflect on our own biases and prejudices vis-a-vis the indigenous communities with whom we work? How can we build cultural safety into our public health practice with various communities? @prashanthns & colleagues write.

[sanjay nagral @sanjaynagral]

Regular suicides by young students due to the fear of NEET r sad. But this also says a lot about the abnormal importance to a medical degree in india by parents, society & explains why they cough out crores
Why is a medical degree in india so coveted? https://t.co/3uH6OwhVD6

[daktre/ಡಾಕ್ಟ್ರೇ @prashanthns]

Wrote this editorial for @GlobalHealthBMJ blending a critical reflection of 2 decades journey from #MedEd to #PublicHealth with Sandel’s critique of meritocracy & @drrbalu’s book on leadership; thanks for the flowers and the cacti coming my way!

[Dr Mohan Bairwa @PubHealthAdv]

Interesting and honest reading @prashanthns.
Could a well-designed meritocracy then help us overcome centuries of social baggage in the form of caste, class, gender and such that the new India would like to leave behind?

The Soliga tribal community from Chamrajanagar has started to take the vaccine after several health organisations and NGOs helped spread awareness among the members and improved their receptivity to it. @BangaloreMirror
