Leave A Positive Impact Wherever You Pass...

[Ray Elphas @rayelphas]

For the last several months, I’ve had the privilege of directing a new documentary, "Charting New Futures In Africa's Drylands" — following stories in #Kenya, #Nigeria, and #SouthSudan.

It's easy to type lies while you are in the office. I'm with my dad at the hospital and he can't get his dialysis session because the government has approved only 2375 shillings for the dialysis rather than 9,500. Stop!!!

Opinion: William Ruto is not the first leader whose polished international image fails to reflect his sinking domestic reputation. But he is a stark example of the difficulty of reconciling global obligations with domestic political realities https://t.co/f0q5AypyGi

Did you know the cause of 30% of #Epilepsy cases globally?
Check out my recent piece from Uganda for @OHRECA_ILRI

[Ray Elphas @rayelphas]

A piece I worked on alongside the CKM team at @ILRI on how @iCow_ke's innovative Soil Advocacy Program is harnessing the mobile power of boda-boda riders in Kenya to bring to farmers valuable knowledge on diagnosing and regenerating their farm soils.

Data is key in creating health, nutrition & agricultural policies.
A short doc I've produced on an ICT-based platform that collects health data directly from caregivers & PLHIVs in Marsabit & Kilifi in Kenya.

There is no justification for war. Whether it's from Russia or any country for that matter. The soldiers and civilians from both sides pay a hefty price for the agenda of those in power. #WarIsNotTheAnswer

[The New York Times @nytimes]

The body of a Russian soldier lay next to an armored vehicle that Ukrainian soldiers said was Russian, in Kharkiv, Ukraine, on Friday.

Ukraine’s military was waging a fierce battle to push Russian forces back from the city a day after a vicious fight. https://t.co/E3ld2rfsqy

Thread on FLAGS OF WEST AFRICA
Looks like West African countries all went to the same tailor to get their flags done. Can't blame tailor. Y'all can't go to same person for a piece of cloth. Ghana must have arrived first and was given a black star patched in yellow, green, red.

Honored to have directed this short #documentary on the female #future of #science in #Africa. #womenempowerment

@SEEIntl This is a lovely story.

[Ray Elphas @rayelphas]

@SEEIntl is doing an exemplary job globally helping those who are needlessly blind regain their sight. I’m honored to have had the opportunity to recently document the organization’s amazing work in Ghana.

Excited to have led the documentation in Kenya for this global project by @JNJCares

[Ray Elphas @rayelphas]

These two (the late Alan Donovan & the late Ayub Ogada) were an inspiration.
Sad that our documentary film conversation with Alan Donovan about his life will never see the light of the day.

Go bold Alan.

Glad to have been part of the team producing this series for @Data4SDGs
Besides working on this project, It has been an eye-opening opportunity for me on how serious of a pandemic #AMR is. Engaging with communities is really key in addressing #AMR

[Global Partnership @Data4SDGs]

.@Wellcome_AMR's @tjmidega, @Samakech, @KNBStats's Benjamin Avusevwa & Dr Evelyn Wesangula discuss how engaging w/ communities in #Kenya is critical to plugging #AMR data gaps & changing behaviour.
