Svea Closser Lecture: Engaging Community Health Workers in Global Health Policymaking through Reality TV Competitions

Community Health Workers (CHWs), the majority of whom are women, are the bedrock of primary care provision across the world but are often employed at the bottom of health hierarchies where they have little voice. We developed a policymaking “Shark Tank” competition for female CHWs working on polio vaccination in Peshawar, Pakistan. Structured processes can allow the least powerful actors in global health structures to suggest innovations that work for them.
