Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>ActionAid Malawi has called for long-term investment in community-led health interventions, arguing that lasting change in the health sector will only come when affected communities are given the power to lead solutions to their own problems.<\/p>\n

\u201cAffected communities know their problems best and must be given an opportunity to lead in solving them. As duty bearers, we cannot know the true value of the service we render unless told by the service user. When we do this, we will move from charity to partnership,\u201d said a senior official from the organisation.<\/p>\n

The message was delivered during a presentation at the Global Fund Country Team meeting held in Lilongwe today, where ActionAid Malawi shared results from its implementation of the COVID-19 Response Mechanism (C-19RM) \u201cHealth and Community Systems Strengthening\u201d program.<\/p>\n

The program is funded by The Global Fund through the Ministry of Health\u2019s Program Implementation Unit.<\/p>\n
