Empowering community health workers – The Global Fund
The Global Fund made the following post on LinkedIn:
“Community health workers are a bridge to delivering critical healthcare to those at risk of being left behind. Their role is indispensable in achieving universal health coverage.
They deliver testing, treatment, and care to the most remote communities and are often the first to detect and respond to disease outbreaks.
But most community health workers remain unpaid, unequipped, and undertrained. Across Africa, up to 85% of community health workers are not paid.
Community health workers are the backbone of health systems – and they deserve to be treated as professionals with adequate pay, training, protection from harassment, and better integration into formal health systems.
Over the 2024–2026 period, The Global Fund is investing over US$900 million in community health workers.”
