#Decolonizing global health research involves ensuring power balance between researchers and study communities. There are seven dimensions that guided their study's efforts to #shiftpower dynamics in research, decolonize research processes, and build equitable collaborations.

#Communities aren't just data sources-they're rights-holders, storytellers, and change agents. The data must come back to inform their lives, strengthen their rights, or shape better solutions. Data must serve those who provide it. 📸: UNDP Kenya

Did you know it takes 17 years for research to influence policy/change? I represented Zihi Institute at #Evi4DevConference; "From Data to Action" panel, discussing #Data4lmpact, #DecolonizeResearch, & why we must return data to the communities. Read more: bit.ly/Evi4Dev

Data must move us! At #Evi4Dev, African voices called for urgent, evidence-based action: it’s time to pivot from outdated funding models and externally driven priorities toward bold investments in African-led R&D and policies that strengthen and secure our health systems.

Real change happens when communities stop being seen as recipients and start leading as decision-makers. Let's #ShiftTheNarrative: True impact begins with community power, not top-down planning. #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs #CommunityPower #CoDesign

Research must be reciprocal. Communities aren't just data sources, they deserve access to the insights they help generate. Let's make #DataEquity and #KnowledgeJustice the norm, not the exception. #EvidenceWithCommunities #RethinkingAid

Well-funded doesn't mean well-suited. Without local context, even the best-funded interventions can miss the mark. Let's co-design with communities, not for them. #DecolonizeDevelopment #CommunityVoices #ContextMatters

Change isn’t just about statistics, it’s about connection, trust, and long-term transformation. While we track numbers, true progress runs deeper: it’s in how people live, feel, and lead after the project ends. Let’s shift how we define success.

Impact isn’t one-size-fits-all. What’s meaningful to a donor or evaluator may not reflect what truly matters to a community. Local people must be at the center of defining success based on their lived realities, goals, and values. True development listens first, then supports.

Marginalized communities often have limited access to infection prevention and control interventions due to a combination of structural, social, and economic barriers. How can we improve these communities’ access to quality and effective infectious disease interventions?

No research, no solutions. Kenya risks falling behind as key institutions like KEMRI and the National Research Fund face major funding gaps. It is time to invest in health research. See the full press statement: chread.africa/resources #InvestInRnD #HealthInnovation #Kenya

Kenya stands at a crossroads as key institutions like Kenya Medical Research Institute and the National Research Fund Kenya face critical funding shortages. Without investment in health research, we risk falling behind in the fight against emerging diseases, health inequities, and system inefficiencies. 🔍 Health

Research grows economies. Every shilling invested in health R&D generates jobs, innovations, and life-saving solutions. Kenya can lead in health breakthroughs if we fund our science. #InvestInRnD Read the full statement here on chread.africa/Resources

Kenya’s health research is in crisis , KEMRI got only KSh 40 M for labs and the NRF received 0 funding Read our press statement coverage Read: news.scienceafrica.co.ke/health-coaliti… #investInRnD

We need action now. Parliament must allocate money for research, pass the 0.1% SHA contribution for research, and buy locally made innovations. That’s how we protect Kenya’s health and economy. Are you with us? #InvestInRnD Read the full statement here on chread.africa/Resources
