“@WHO recommends contracting & remunerating practicing community health workers with a financial package commensurate with the job demands, complexity, number of hours, training & roles they undertake” -@LinskeyKatey @lastmilehealth medium.com/@communities4u…
Friends in DC - See need for support to fight back against ICE raids and detentions. “We need south Asian folks that can volunteer to provide translation, outreach, legal counsel this weekend”
“UHC won’t be possible without gender equity, and gender equity won’t be possible without UHC.” Great reminder from Courtney Henke of @lastmilehealth on how crucial it is to include women & girls in the fight for #HealthForAll. #WD2019
“It’s not support, not give, not finance, it’s INVEST in #healthworkers”. @MaEllenSirleaf tonight message is loud & clear - when we talk about healthworker shortage we’re talking about 18 million individuals who deserve a comprehensive system enabling them to reach full potential
Can always count on @rajpanjabi to use his voice to elevate the voices of his fellow health workers; sharing @AlberthaFreema7 challenge “If you promise to invest in health workers, I can promise to continue the fight on the frontlines.” #solidarity
"The community workers have their own leaders; I don't have to tell them.
Reach out to them, recognize them for who they are; give them the political support needed."
@MaEllenSirleaf on how to lead in emergencies
#InvestInHealthWorkers
We have the right @WHO Goodwill Ambassador!
"There's no way to describe the feeling when your minister of health tells you there is an unfamiliar disease, people are dying, and no one knows how to respond to it.
It is terrifying." @MaEllenSirleaf
There's no two ways about it -- frontline health workers are heroes.
“Let us not forget that health is a human centered service. A robot cannot deliver empathy” @VBKerry eloquently reminds us that humanity must remain at the heart of all the #healthworkforce conversations this week.
“We invest in what we value and we value what we invest in” @rajpanjabi making a passionate testimony to honor the #healthworkforce that makes #UHC possible by investing in @AlberthaFreema7 and the millions of brave healthworkers like her around the 🌍 #WHA72
Amref Health Africa compliments the WHO on the adoption of the CHW guidelines. Countries should transition from volunteerism to remuneration of community health workers through integration into the formal health workforce @Amref_Worldwide. @lizwala reading our statement at #WHA72
"Another world is not only possible, she's on the way [on her motorobike] and, on a quiet day, if you listen very carefully you can hear her breathing." @ArundhatiRoy . Taking a little liberty with this quote, because this is the female future I imagine 🚺🌍. @AlberthaFreema7

“CHWs come from the communities they serve, they have the same traditions, speak the same language - that’s why they are trusted” @MaEllenSirleaf speaks to the power of investing in communities and supporting #CHWs to deliver and demand #UHC on their terms. #UHC4communities
"How do finances actually flow from center to periphery? Where are bottlenecks in the flow of essential #phc supplies? The community health worker's credibility is at stake when they open a cabinet and there's nothing in it." - @PeteSalama @WHO#uhc#phc4uhc #healthforall#wha72
