Just published in @BMJ_Open!
We found that lifting #COVID19 restrictions led to an increase in some primary care services in Nepal.

"Building resilience is much more than preparedness; it involves investment in institutions, preconditions like an effective health workforce." In contrast to traditional health security frameworks, 'everyday' resilience encourages daily function. -@mkruk @HarvardChanSPH et al

Only 25% of people think their #HealthSystem functions.
A series of papers published in @LancetGH, led by @HarvardChanSPH & @questglobalnet, added a missing component to the evaluation of health system performance.

How do you measure health system confidence? We propose: health security + endorsement. Health security = ability to get AND afford quality services you need. More in our recent @LancetGH series paper: thelancet.com/journals/langl… @questglobalnet @toddplewis
Excited to share this series--and our new instrument, the People's Voice Survey--with the world! Thanks to all @questglobalnet colleagues--what a team! @toddplewis @CatArsenault @neenaranee @gatesfoundation @gateshealth

"A Health system belongs first to its users. We need a systemic, continued, and regular dialogue between communities and governments." @DalilSuraya @WHO #SocialParticipation
Our goal is now loud and clear 📢A #WHA Resolution on #SocialParticipation to be adopted NEXT YEAR.
Very much aligned with our effort to collect population views of health system performance via the #PeoplesVoiceSurvey. Can’t have people centered health systems without their insights. @questglobalnet
🔈The Handbook on Social Participation for #UHC provides practical guidance on strengthening meaningful government engagement with the population, communities, and civil society for national health policy-making #LeaveNoOneBehind - @dheepa_rajan @WHO

In the #PeoplesVoiceSurvey we find participation in health governance to be strongly associated with health system trust in high and low income countries. More on Thursday at our @questglobalnet side event.
"The importance of institutionalising participation is real. What is important is to build these institutions that would allow us to build trust and long term social participation in health decision-making processes" @AwadMataria @WHOEMRO
Super excited for this. Join us if you’re in Geneva this week!
