Welcome once again to the global health unfiltered podcast, a podcast about unspoken realities about global health in Africa and the world. Today, we will be talking about funding global health initiatives; who funds what? How are the decisions made? Are African countries too reliant on external funding for public health? And we have an awesome guest with tons of experience in this sector who will be sharing his views with us.
We would also like to acknowledge the sponsors of this episode, the “Promoting Decolonization using innovative knowledge practices" grant hosted by the Center for Tropical Medicine and Global Health of Oxford University's Nuffield Department of Medicine.
Dr. Sam Oti is a Senior Program Specialist at Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC). He operates out of the Nairobi-based regional office for Eastern and Southern Africa, where he serves as the primary point of contact for IDRC's global health initiatives. He is also a commissioner on the Chatham House Commission for Universal Health and a co-founder of the Network of Impact Evaluation Researchers in Africa. Additionally, Dr. Oti hosts “MedxTek Africa”; a popular podcast highlighting digital health and health technology innovations from across the African continent. In 2020, Dr. Oti co-founded the Global Health Decolonisation Movement in Africa – a professional network that is seeking to mobilize a critical mass of African voices to speak out about what we perceive as the manifestations of coloniality in global health. The movement’s mission strongly aligns with the Africa CDC’s call for a “New Public Health Order”.
