In the DRC, women self-fund transport so other women in labour can reach a clinic when floods cut off the roads. Read the full article: https://redasadki.me/2026/07/05/climate-and-health-reda-sadkis-remarks-at-the-nexa-funding-announcement-in-support-of-local-community-responses/
Reda Sadki of The Geneva Learning Foundation described that example on a panel at the Nexa funding launch in London on 21 June 2026.
Through Teach to Reach, health workers were asked what worked, what failed, and why.
Hundreds answered with documented local solutions, most self-funded by the communities themselves.
Sadki called it a double-edged sword.
Sustainability is what everyone wants.
Self-organised action that asks nothing from government or donors looks like exactly that.
But self-organisation can only go so far, he said.
It needs to match the resources invested elsewhere.
"If there is no commensurate investment in communities and in local action, we will end up with better policy and better science," he said.

The guide is written for one reader, a community leader short on time.
It states three checks before you spend time writing.
Your organization must be incorporated and in good standing.
Your country must appear on Nexa's eligible list.
You must show a real link to the community you serve.
Nexa funds one thing, turning a climate warning into fast health action.
Its focus covers three hazards, mosquito-borne disease, extreme heat, and poor air quality.
Nexa was shaped by the largest climate and health survey ever run.
It gathered 6,400 health and humanitarian workers.
Teach to Reach delivered over 60 percent of the survey's responses.

Malaria: something is missing somewhere.
Sawadogo Lassane, a community health worker in Burkina Faso said it plainly.
Each year the malaria cases do nothing but climb, despite everything he and his government do.
More than 1,500 people who work for health, in over 30 countries, started learning from and supporting each other on 29 June 2026.
Malaria: Turning the Tide is a new programme from The Geneva Learning Foundation.
Request your invitation here:
https://www.learning.foundation/teachtoreach
It is about learning from and supporting each other to find what is missing.
On 6 August 2026, we bring that work together at Teach to Reach 16.
This is the first milestone in our malaria programme.
It is also step one of a longer walk to the finish line of implementation.
You will hear frontline colleagues on what they see that the register does not: fever care that happens in the drug shop before it reaches the clinic, mosquitoes that have changed their hours, and new tools that succeed or fail on trust before a single dose is given.
One story shows what is possible and what to test.
Hundreds of patterned accounts are a different kind of evidence.
Join us for the live event.
Bring one colleague who is fighting malaria alone.
They should not have to.

Across the border, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is still fighting hard, with 2,124 confirmed cases and 828 deaths reported as of July 16, most of them in Ituri province.
One important detail stands out for health workers everywhere: 92.3% of nearly 430 investigated deaths happened in the community or before the person even reached a health facility.
This tells us that the biggest problem is not only treatment, it is delay in detection and referral.

Menopause affects every woman who lives long enough. Yet in most health systems, it is invisible. No screening. No vocabulary. No budget. Read the full article: https://redasadki.me/2026/05/31/beyond-the-hot-flash-a-primer-for-health-workers-about-menopause/

A script had compared every quotation against the raw course exports, character by character.
It flagged 17 it could not match, and the pipeline stopped.
The diagnosis took an hour and taught us more than success would have.
14 of those quotations were verbatim, and the checker itself had the gaps.
Three had been quietly smoothed by the drafting model.
A tidied space. A softened phrase.
The reports analysed what 323 health professionals did and learned about gender in emergencies.
They also asked what those professionals collectively know about power, safety, and dignity.
A health worker in Kano who writes 300 careful words about hierarchy has produced knowledge.
Paraphrasing her into a smoother sentence she never wrote is expropriation.
So when the report says 63% of submissions name hierarchy as a barrier, the number carries its own epistemology.
At least 63%, measured by a method whose known bias runs downward.
15 of 19 codes failed our reliability floor, and both reports print that table.
One revision made by a human ballooned a code from 13% to 60% overnight, and the gates caught it.
The pipeline defended itself against its own maintainer, which is the point of gates.
Version 4.0 of TGLF's non-human Insights Team is open source, with a replication bundle of 72 files and a hash for every one.

On 28 July 2023, 4,700 health workers from 68 countries logged on alone, each in a small room with a poor connection, to answer one question. Is climate change a threat to the health of the people you serve.
A pharmacist in Nigeria described her flooded street and the mosquitoes breeding in the pools. A volunteer in Kenya read his own logbook aloud, positive malaria tests tripled in five years.
That single afternoon became a corpus of learning, a certificate programme, and two global surveys reaching thousands of practitioners across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The Lancet Countdown now cites this kind of frontline testimony in its country profiles.
