Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 23-Interview with Rachael Goba
Q: What advice would you give to someone starting a career in public health?
Prioritize self-care to prevent burnout, speak up and advocate for your ideas, stay adaptable as the field evolves with digital health and AI, and pursue work that combines passion with impact rather than chasing money alone.
Episode 23-Interview with Rachael Goba
Q: What are the biggest challenges you face in the field?
Bureaucracy, slow systemic change, and inconsistent funding; additionally, cultural barriers and inequities in representation in global health decision-making pose ongoing obstacles that require persistent advocacy and local leadership.
Episode 23-Interview with Rachael Goba
Q: How does development differ from humanitarian work in public health, and how should a career navigate between them?
Development focuses on long-term improvements, capacity building, and systemic resilience, whereas humanitarian work demands rapid, on-the-ground action during crises; many professionals rotate between these contexts to respond to changing needs of populations.
Episode 23-Interview with Rachael Goba
Q: What does a typical day look like for you in this role?
The workday is dynamic and varies by day; it can include advising country offices, conducting trainings, engaging with donors, preparing program materials, and contributing to global advocacy, all while ensuring adolescent health remains a priority and services are accessible.
Episode 25-Interview with Dr. Nyasha Dzavakwa
Q: How would you define public health in the context of your work?
Public health is looking at the bigger picture beyond the individual patient, identifying systemic and societal barriers to care, and focusing on prevention and health system improvements to reduce disease burden and improve outcomes, particularly through implementation science and resistance-preventive strategies in HIV care.
