    Changes in Child Undernutrition and Overweight in India From 2006 to 2021: An Ecological Analysis of 36 States
    Jithin Sam Varghese, Aashish Gupta, Rukshan Mehta, Aryeh D. Stein and Shivani A. Patel
    Global Health: Science and Practice October 2022, 10(5):e2100569; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00569

    India has historically displayed high levels of child stunting and low levels of child overweight. Despite improvements in human development indicators between 2006 and 2021, population-level reductions in child stunting have slowed and child overweight is rising faster than predicted by human development indicators.

    Service delivery redesign is needed to accelerate progress toward improved health outcomes. Kakamega County, Kenya, demonstrates that there is a strong base of health system assets that would serve as a starting point to successfully implement maternal and newborn health service delivery redesign.

    Translating Implementation Experiences and Lessons Learned From Polio Eradication Into a Global Health Course: Insights From an International Consortium
    Anna Kalbarczyk, Svea Closser, Aditi Rao, Oluwaseun Akinyemi, Humarya Binte Anwar, Eric Mafuta, Piyusha Majumdar and Olakunle O. Alonge
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2021, 9(3):682-689; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00460

    Using international collaborations to develop educational materials presents several challenges but offers enormous benefits in gleaning a wealth of information, perspectives, and context. The global course that resulted from this collaboration mirrors the goals of implementation science more broadly—to bring the findings of research into routine practice to improve health services.

    Lynn G. Jiang, Peter W. Greenwald, Michael J. Alfonzo, Jane Torres-Lavoro, Manish Garg, Ally Munir Akrabi, Erasto Sylvanus, Shahzmah Suleman and Radhika Sundararajan
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2021, 9(3):690-697; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-21-00005

    We created a sustainable, bidirectional partnership using telecommunication technology to enhance emergency medicine education collaboration. Telemedicine is a practical and innovative methodology to expand training in emergency medicine and establish bidirectional partnerships between academic departments in high-income and low- and middle-income countries.

    The Demographic and Health Surveys Faculty Fellows Program: Successes, Challenges, and Lessons Learned
    Wenjuan Wang, Shireen Assaf, Thomas Pullum and Sunita Kishor
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2021, 9(2):390-398; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00318

    Since 2011, the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) Faculty Fellows Program has strengthened individual skills in conducting research with data from large surveys and increased institutional capacity to analyze DHS data through fellows' capacity-building activities at their home universities. The lessons learned can inform models for strengthening capacity in analyzing and using data in low- and middle-income countries.

    Gillian Dougherty, Tihnje Abena, Jean Pierre Abesselo, Jeane Ngala Banda, Tjek Paul Biyaga, Rodrigo Boccanera, Mary Adetinuke Boyd, Mesmey Ebogo, Leoda Hamomba, Suzanne Jed, Zeh Florence Kakanou, Prisca Kasonde, Siphiwe Chilungu Kasonka, Rachael Lungwebungu, Caitlin Madevu-Matson, Magdalene Mange Mayer, Mukuka Mwamba, Milembe Panya, Paul Sakanda, Fatima Tsiouris, Lauren Walker and Miriam Rabkin
    Global Health: Science and Practice June 2021, 9(2):399-411; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-20-00550

    To bridge the gap between what is known and what is done, quality improvement collaboratives (QICs) enable health programs to rapidly address quality challenges at scale. Two QICs in Cameroon and Zambia improved coverage of early infant HIV testing and initiating antiretroviral therapy in HIV-exposed infants. The QIC approach empowers health care workers to design solutions tailored for their specific settings.

    Indicators for Monitoring and Evaluation of Community-Based Injectable Contraception: Multisourced Process and New Global Guidance
    Jill M. Peterson, Kirsten Krueger and John Stanback
    Global Health: Science and Practice September 2019, 7(3):491-497; https://doi.org/10.9745/GHSP-D-19-00133

    We based our guidance on a literature review, technical consultation, and case studies of 3 countries. We identified 4 essential indicators: enough community health workers (CHWs) certified to provide injectables to meet project goals, CHWs are appropriately supervised, stock of injectables is reliable, and clients are receiving injections.
