On @theuncagedshow #podcast, @BantBreen asked me about my take on how well local communities are delivering #healthcare solutions. When considering #PublicHealth, we are in a better place Of course, this does not mean we are where we would like to be. Work continues!

[Kojo Lokko @kaylokko]

Lack of access to #healthcare facilities, low resources + staff, and high costs are hitting Nigeria's #WomensHealth and #ReproductiveHealth hard. While this article focuses on rural communities, @tciurbanhealth also recognizes the needs of the urban poor. https://t.co/UqDl3kqumf

Sani works as a #FamilyPlanning service provider at a @tciurbanhealth-supported health facility. With our support, the facility has adopted proper documentation practice + Sani has gained invaluable skills in data documentation through On-the-Job Training. https://t.co/kLxV0GS1vN

In my discussion with @BrantBreen on his @theuncagedshow #podcast, I was able to talk about @tciurbanhealth. We are proud to bring #ReproductiveHealth solutions to the urban poor across Africa and Asia. #Healthcare

Recently, I was a guest on @theuncagedshow #podcast! It was great talking w/ @BantBreen and sharing what we're doing at @tciurbanhealth to support poor urban communities. For me, this was a recognition of my thought and business #leadership. Have a listen! https://t.co/QwcaUgC6fX

The cervical #cancer health gap in low/middle-income countries (representing 94% of deaths) is a keen example of inequities in #WomensHealth. Kenya sees the worst of this. Luckily a coalition is being set up to address this critical #healthcare challenge. https://t.co/0bWNQnmyFU

I'm glad to see the significant strides in #FamilyPlanning in Kenya. With the support of @tciurbanhealth, I'm hopeful they will reach their goal of a modern contraceptive prevalence of 64% by 2030. Read more: https://t.co/ZTqhoOb3a0

Godiya Yusuf, @tciurbanhealth manager is shedding light on the inadequate and worrisome #FamilyPlanning commodities in the Adamawa state that require urgent attention. I echo calls to provide more commodities to all parts of the state. https://t.co/89ny69cddN

Baguio City, Philippines is host to a significant issue w/ adolescent pregnancies. Just 2 year after engaging w/ @tciurbanhealth, their adolescent birth rate dropped to 14.5%, w/ only 209 adolescents giving birth in 2023. A great success! https://t.co/C4djAnJsae

The #WomensHealth gap is hitting sub-Saharan Africa particularly hard. A unique coalition of public and private stakeholders has come together to support improvements in breast and cervical cancer detection, treatment, and care to address their burden. https://t.co/BbMRQ0Fr07

The below graph demonstrates an unfortunate decrease in additional #FamilyPlanning clients in the city of Lomé. The Grand Lomé Health Region recently hosted an impactful workshop assessing its FP program in partnership with @tciurbanhealth. Read more here: https://t.co/4JZPX78ReU

I appreciate the work of Maternity Foundation, Franka. Congrats on being a part of discussions around reproductive health in such an important forum.

[Kojo Lokko @kaylokko]

A big component of #WomensHealth is #ReproductiveHealth, something @tciurbanhealth is particularly focused on improving, especially among the urban poor. How can we make International Day of Action for Women’s Health a day of ACTION rather than just awareness? #WomensHealthDay

#kwaraFPtraining brought together Nurses/Midwives and CHEWs for 5 days of capacity building around #FamilyPlanning Long Acting Reversible Contraceptive (FP LARC). Glad @tciurbanhealth could collaborate with the @KWSGHealth for this important training.

@KWSGHealth in collaboration with @tciurbanhealth organized a 5 day capacity building of Nurses/Midwives and CHEWs on Family planning Long Acting Reversible Contraceptive ( FP LARC).

Myths and misconceptions around #FamilyPlanning abound among men in Pakistan. @tciurbanhealth is proud to partner with Rawalpindi to increase the effectiveness of this committee to improve overall contraceptive prevalence rates in Pakistan. More info here: https://t.co/UJMuxijonN

I can't think of a better way to have celebrated Mother's Day. @tciurbanhealth is honored to support @DhoIslamabad and #HealthforAll.

[District Health Officer Islamabad @DhoIslamabad]

District Health Office with the support of @tciurbanhealth/@GreenstarPak marked a memorable occasion of Mother’s Day with great enthusiasm and gratitude. The dedication and hard work of our FWWs and FWAs were honoured and appreciated.

Incredible work, @AnitaZaidi! Thank you for supporting women health workers and #EndPolio.

[Anita Zaidi @AnitaZaidi]

At @wef’s #SpecialMeeting24 in Riyadh, we discussed how female health workers are making a polio-free world #HumanlyPossible.

Thanks to a new commitment from @KSRelief_EN, @SaudiMOH, and the @gatesfoundation, we can continue to support women health workers and #EndPolio.

[Kojo Lokko @kaylokko]

In Africa, cultural norms, lack of awareness, and limited access in remote areas present significant hurdles for #FamilyPlanning. However, we are continuing to see significant strides. Let's keep up the momentum. #SexualHealth #ReproductiveHealth https://t.co/Mm4eXTXdOv
