"Experience shows us that when we invest in CHWs, and when they are salaried, skilled, supervised and supplied, they can improve health outcomes with equity." James Nardella calling us all to action, inspired by the work of CHWs.

See Chelsea Clinton highlight Last Mile Health and Integrate Health commitment “to improving primary care for millions of people... their programs to support and strengthen gender-responsive community healthcare will promote better health outcomes and reduce preventable deaths”.

Community health workers – the great majority of them women – put in long hours to protect people in developing countries from diseases such as malaria and H.I.V. But most are compensated minimally, or not paid at all. Now, they’re organizing for change. nyti.ms/3Pt7IkR

We Last Mile Health are here to raise the political will around the need to professionalize CHWs. If we are going to achieve universal health coverage, the health workers, who are closest to the community, those that serve their neighbors everyday, must be on the agenda. #ProCHWs

It's an honor for Last Mile Health and Skoll Foundation's partnership to be included in the 2024 Gates Foundation annual letter authored by Mark Suzman -- and a testament to the impact of professionalized CHWs around the world. 🌍 #proCHWs Dr. Raj Panjabi Jeffrey Skoll

“It’s unacceptable in 2024 that we’re not paying community health workers…. We need strong community health systems led by #proCHWs to meet the burden of disease created by climate change.” - Dr. Vanessa Kerry of Seed Global Health #UNGA79

“A design flaw in the current set of big bets is that makers and takers of big bets tend to see the world through a capital market lens. There is a desire among us, and pressure from the social investors, to reach the “Social Unicorn” status.” 🦄📈💸 #SkollAwardees |
