“L’idée est de les doter d’équipements et de matériels suffisants pour qu’il n’y ait à leur aucune coupure d’approvisionnement en oxygène.” @PIH @pivotmadagascar @BuildHealthIntl @UNITAID 2424.mg/sante-publique-madag…
Nous collaborons avec le Ministère de la Santé Publique pour le renforcement de la capacité de production et d’utilisation d’oxygène dans 7 centres hospitaliers à Madagascar. Cela s’aligne avec le plan stratégique national pour l'oxygénothérapie du gouvernement malagasy.
Nous adressons nos gratitudes à @unitaid pour leur appui financier à ce projet, et à @partnersinhealth, @BuildHealthIntl, et @unicefmada pour leur appui technique!

Everyone deserves to breathe. But the global oxygen crisis has exposed that in reality breathing is a privilege and not a right. @PIH with @BuildHealthIntl @pivotmadagascar and @unitaid is working to change this. pih.org/article/bring-o2-fil…

Wonderfully written, @MatthewBonds3

"...he not only saw how each part of the system was connected—from frontline care providers to global funders to drivers, scientists, cleaners & everyone in between—he knew how to fortify & grow those connections around a common moral clarity on behalf of patients everywhere."

“Less is different”: A lovely glimpse of Paul Farmer’s worldview by one of our fellows, Matt Bonds. This integrative thinking is in Pivot’s work too. science.org/content/blog-pos… @pivotmadagascar @MatthewBonds3
