    Learning From Neighbors
    Stephen Hodgins
    Global Health: Science and Practice December 2020, 8(4):613; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00639

    We can learn valuable lessons from program efforts that at first glance may seem to be far removed from our own work.

    Counseling Is a Relationship Not Just a Skill: Re-conceptualizing Health Behavior Change Communication by India’s Accredited Social Health Activists
    Rajani Ved and Kerry Scott
    Global Health: Science and Practice October 2020, 8(3):332-334; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00426

    The capacity for India’s community health workers—accredited social health activists (ASHAs)—to promote healthy behaviors must be understood within the health system and community context. Their ability to influence health behaviors depends on the strength of their relationships with families and support they receive from the health system.

    Community Ownership in Primary Health Care—Managing the Intangible
    Eric Sarriot and Ali Nashat Shaar
    Global Health: Science and Practice October 2020, 8(3):327-331; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00427

    Although enduringly intangible, community ownership is foundational to primary health care. This intangibility is a reminder of what programs can and should do (create space for dialogue, question their own choices, expand diversity in stakeholder voices making sense of program-induced changes, including through evaluation) and what they cannot do (manage someone else’s ownership).

    Institutionalization of Projects Into Districts in Low- and Middle-Income Countries Needs Stewardship, Autonomy, and Resources
    Peter Waiswa
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2020, 8(2):144-146; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00170

    Important attributes for project institutionalization include strong stewardship and champions, affordability, demand for the intervention and perceived benefit, minimal complexity, and optimal intervention design and period of support.

    Learning from Community Health Worker Programs, Big and Small
    Stephen Hodgins
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2020, 8(2):147-149; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00244

    Small, well-implemented, well-evaluated community health worker programs can provide useful insights and inspiration. Testing, learning, and adapting at progressively larger scale can ultimately lead to national-scale programs that achieve sustainable impact.

    Will the Higher-Income Country Blueprint for COVID-19 Work in Low- and Lower Middle-Income Countries?
    Stephen Hodgins and Abdulmumin Saad
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2020, 8(2):136-143; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00217

    Strategies to radically suppress incidence of COVID-19, as used in higher-income countries, may be unrealistic and counterproductive in most low- and lower middle-income countries. Instead, strategies should be tailored to the setting, balancing expected benefits, potential harms, and feasibility.

    A Tablet-Based Tool for Care During Labor+Attention to System Requirements
    Stephen Hodgins
    Global Health: Science and Practice December 2019, 7(4):498-499; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00384

    Evidence on using a tablet-based labor decision-support tool suggests the potential for improved practices in labor management. Further rigorous study on these tools is needed to assess the improvements in labor care and outcomes as well as the system requirements needed to achieve such improvements.

    Healthy Timing and Spacing of Pregnancy: Reducing Mortality Among Women and Their Children
    Ellen Starbird and Kathryn Crawford
    Global Health: Science and Practice August 2019, 7(Supplement 2):S211-S214; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00262

    Accessible, affordable, and high-quality postabortion care (PAC) can prevent maternal death and disability and provides an important opportunity to prevent future unintended pregnancies. This supplement offers learnings on PAC provision from the community of partners around the world, including service delivery and community engagement models, approaches to support facility-based providers, best practices in pre- and post-procedure counseling, and approaches to institutionalize PAC in public- and private-sector health systems.

    Postabortion Care and the Voluntary Family Planning Component: Expanding Contraceptive Choices and Service Options
    Douglas Huber
    Global Health: Science and Practice August 2019, 7(Supplement 2):S207-S210; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00128

    Universal access to voluntary postabortion family planning is a critical and compelling component of postabortion care. Such access should be joined with postpartum family planning services in national programs, health information systems, and training programs. The same providers and facilities deliver both services, and integration could yield cost efficiencies and increased coverage for women receiving postabortion care.
