https://www.gavi.org/vaccineswork/global-problems-local-solutions-health-workers-helping-communities-brace-climate

In a new article on Gavi's #VaccinesWork blog, health workers from 68 countries share how changing weather patterns are driving food insecurity, spreading disease, and disrupting health services.

From flood-ravaged streets to parched fields, health workers in the Teach to Reach global network are witnessing the impacts of climate change firsthand.

But they also reveal local initiatives they're spearheading to help communities adapt.

Planting trees, adjusting vaccine schedules, promoting hygiene - these frontline workers are finding ways to protect health amidst crisis.

At COP28, they raised their voices, urging world leaders to invest in local solutions.

Read a few of their compelling insights on the realities of the climate-health emergency and the vital role of health workers in building resilience from the ground up.

World Malaria Day 2024: We need new ways to support health workers lead change with local communities
https://redasadki.me/2024/04/25/world-malaria-day-2024-we-need-new-ways-to-learn-and-lead-change-with-local-communities/

On this World Malaria Day, the Geneva Learning Foundation stands with health workers on the frontlines of the battle against this disease. As climate change reshapes the malaria landscape, we need innovative approaches to support these critical actors in driving local action and building resilience.

That’s why locally-led action to end malaria is taking center stage at Teach to Reach 10, our platform connecting over 50,000 health workers worldwide to share knowledge, experiences, and solutions.

Read the article to discover how Teach to Reach can contribute to translating the global commitments of the Yaoundé Declaration into locally-led action by and for communities.

Frontline voices like Yapoulouce Bamba from Guinea are sounding the alarm on how environmental changes are fueling malaria’s spread - and how communities are fighting back.

Discover what health workers from malaria-endemic countries are observing about the impact of changing climate on malaria in their local communities in the new insights report “On the frontline of climate change and health”.

On this World Malaria Day, we invite you to join us in elevating frontline voices and forging new ways to learn and lead. Together, we can build a healthier, malaria-free future for all.

🌍🚨 New insights: Health Workers from Africa, Asia, and Latin America on climate, community, and the urgent need for action 🚨🌍

Ahead of Teach to Reach 10, the Geneva Learning Foundation amplifies the voices of health workers from the frontlines of climate and health crises.

👉 Get the full report: https://redasadki.me/2024/05/20/climate-change-and-health-health-workers-on-climate-community-and-the-urgent-need-for-action/

Today, we are sharing 219 new insights from 122 health professionals across Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

These health heroes answer two critical questions:
1️⃣ How is climate change impacting the health of your communities right now?
2️⃣ What actions must world leaders take to help protect those in your care?

Their responses reveal the harsh reality: volatile weather patterns are driving up malnutrition, infectious diseases, and mental illness, while weakening health systems.

Yet, amidst these challenges, resilience and innovation shine through.

From tree-planting initiatives to enhanced disease surveillance and climate education, these health workers are pioneering local solutions with limited resources.

Their stories underscore the interconnectedness of climate change, poverty, and health inequity.

They call for urgent investment in local health workforces and systems to combat these interlocking crises.

As Charlotte Mbuh of the Geneva Learning Foundation says, “We hope that the chorus of voices will grow to strengthen the case for why and how investment in human resources for health is likely to be a ‘best buy’ for community-focused efforts to build the climate resilience of public health systems.”

Join us for Teach to Reach 10 on June 20-21, 2024, where over 20,000 community-based health workers will share their experiences and strategies to combat climate impacts on health.

Let’s ensure these crucial perspectives move from the margins to the heart of the global climate debate! 🌱💉🌏 #ClimateCrisis #HealthWorkers #COP29 #TeachToReach #ClimateHealth #LocalAction #CommunityHealth
