    A Cluster-Randomized Trial to Test Sharing Histories as a Training Method for Community Health Workers in Peru
    Laura C. Altobelli, José Cabrejos-Pita, Mary Penny and Stan Becker
    Global Health: Science and Practice December 2020, 8(4):732-758; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00332

    Women naturally communicate using life narratives. Through systematic recall and sharing memories of their own childbearing and child rearing experiences, community health workers (CHWs) become engaged and empowered to change their own and other mothers’ health behaviors. Training CHW with sharing histories can improve capabilities as change agents for better child health.

    Global Health: Science and Practice December 2020, 8(4):654-665; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00097

    What progress has been achieved toward reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health service related Sustainable Development Goals? Analyzing data to estimate coverage of these indicators, we observed that acceleration is needed in coordinated global efforts and government policies to ensure universal access to RMNCH care services by 2030.

    A Qualitative Comparative Analysis of the Drivers of HIV Status Knowledge in Orphans and Vulnerable Children in Mozambique
    Allie Davis, Zola Allen, Nena do Nascimento, Jenifer Chapman, Rotafina Donco and Daan Velthausz
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):534-548; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00311

    We identified combinations of modifiable factors that HIV programs supporting orphans, vulnerable children, and their families may be able to act on to increase the proportion of beneficiaries who know their HIV status.

    Factors Associated With Delayed Contraceptive Implant Removal in Ethiopia
    Elizabeth Costenbader, Alice F. Cartwright, Misti McDowell, Berhane Assefa, Meza Yirga Tejeji and Eskindir Tenaw
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):000; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00135

    Women receiving implant insertion at the community level were significantly more likely to report keeping their implant for more than 3 years. Even when a referral or back-up system for removals existed, efforts to task-shift the provision of contraceptive implants may have inadvertently led to extended implant use.

    Karen T. Chang, Nirali M. Chakraborty, Amanda M. Kalamar, Waqas Hameed, Ben Bellows, Karen A Grépin, Agha Xaher Gul, Sarah E.K. Bradley, Lynn M. Atuyambe and Dominic Montagu
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):442-454; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00105

    The quality of services provided is likely to affect contraceptive continuation. However, findings are strongly influenced by the quality measurement tools used, emphasizing the need for standardization.

    The Critical Role and Evaluation of Community Mobilizers in Polio Eradication in Remote Settings in Africa and Asia
    Judy Lewis, Karen LeBan, Roma Solomon, Filimona Bisrat, Samuel Usman and Ahmed Arale
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):396-412; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00024

    Where Do Caregivers Take Their Sick Children for Care? An Analysis of Care Seeking and Equity in 24 USAID Priority Countries
    Sarah E.K. Bradley, Lauren Rosapep and Tess Shiras
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):518-533; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00115

    Understanding whether and where parents take sick children for care is critical to improve child health and survival. Stakeholders should use this information to ensure that resources are programmed effectively and that sectors complement one another to increase equitable access to high quality integrated management approaches for sick child care.

    Are We Using the Right Approach to Change Newborn Care Practices in the Community? Qualitative Evidence From Ethiopia and Northern Nigeria
    Zelee Hill, Pauline Scheelbeek, Yashua Hamza, Yared Amare and Joanna Schellenberg
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):383-395; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00410

    In Ethiopia, high community-level exposure to consistent messages and the perceptions of community health workers and relationships with them drove newborn care behavior change. In Nigeria, exposure to messages was limited, community health workers were less trusted, and behavior change was reported less frequently.

    What Makes a National Pharmaceutical Track and Trace System Succeed? Lessons From Turkey
    Koray Parmaksiz, Elizabeth Pisani and Maarten Olivier Kok
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2020, 8(3):431-441; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00084

    Successful implementation of a pharmaceutical track and trace system depended on the political determination to eliminate reimbursement fraud, as well as establishing a pharmaceutical market dominated by a single payer, making reimbursement contingent on verified dispensing and prescription, and being flexible in adapting the system according to stakeholders’ needs.
