  • Filling an important need

    I don’t think I’ve found a podcast that touches the core of what medicine needs right now - advocacy and change. From just the first episode I’ve learnt so much about the importance of advocacy work in low-resource countries. That the most important thing is to navigate the path led by them; to listen, trust and amply their voices. It’s wrong to think they don’t have a voice - they do have a voice, but it’s not being amplified. Looking forward to more episodes
