Education and the economy have a direct impact on good health. Our experiences with communities have clearly shown remarkable results when the families were empowered in terms of economic and social independence. The impact was even more visible when women and girls were educated. Health literacy and health promotion in schools have resulted in lower incidence of the need for hospitalisation and lower rates of absenteeism from schools. It has also been noticed that there has been an increased&nbsp;awareness about environmental concerns. The growing public participation levels and responsibility for health care has eased the burden of health care workers&nbsp;as we see good compliance.&nbsp;Several projects that we have undertaken over&nbsp;the years in terms of creating more schools even in remote areas, health awareness campaigns, early diagnosis through free health care camps in villages and rural areas, microfinance for women, creating livelihoods, skill training, provision of clean drinking water, water conservation and nature protection have&nbsp;transformed community health.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background\" style=\"text-transform:uppercase\">Maternal and child health services and poverty reduction in rural Burundi<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"205\" height=\"205\" data-src=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Dr-Francois-edited.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7974 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 205px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 205\/205;object-fit:cover;width:200px;height:200px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Dr-Francois-edited.png 205w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Dr-Francois-edited-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Dr-Francois-edited-12x12.png 12w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 205px) 100vw, 205px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p><strong>Dr. Fran\u00e7ois Ndikumwenayo<\/strong> is a Paediatric Pulmonologist and lecturer at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ub.edu.bi\/\">Burundi University<\/a>.

The organization has provided assistance to over 200 children with T1D and 1500 mothers with NCD in the provinces of Cibitoke and Bururi in Burundi. These provinces have a poverty rate of over 90% living below poverty line, resulting in limited access to healthcare. As a result, many children are unable to attend school and families are forced to sell their belongings to afford medical expenses. The project&#8217;s goal is to enhance access to diagnosis and treatment by establishing micro-clinics as central care facilities. Community health workers will be supported in distributing insulin and glucometers, while families will be empowered through micro-loans, agribusiness, nutrition, agroecology, vocational training, and enterprise development.

The latter receive free care for three years, giving them better access to healthcare while preserving their economic capital. This helps to avoid situations where families are drawn into a vicious circle of poverty due to unforeseen health expenses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background\" style=\"text-transform:uppercase\">Intersectional perspectives on poverty, activism, advocacy and community health: Protecting the human rights of intersex people<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" data-src=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7777 lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/1024;object-fit:cover;width:200px;height:200px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-12x12.jpeg 12w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-1920x1920.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend-512x512.jpeg 512w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Amets-Suess-Schwend.jpeg 1970w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p><strong>Amets Suess Schwend<\/strong>, PhD in Social Anthropology, MA Arts Therapies and BA\/MA Sociology.

I will analyze the current situation from intersectionality, social determinants of health, human rights and depathologization perspectives, as well as social movement theories. As reported by intersex activism, intersex studies and human rights bodies, in different world regions intersex people are frequently exposed to non-consensual and not clinically necessary surgeries and other treatments, discrimination, and lack of access to needed health care. The intersectionality and social determinants of health frameworks can be useful to analyze the complex intersections between structural inequities, cultural norms, social stigmatization, clinical practices, health problems and poverty intersex people experience. Intersex studies and social movement theories have developed theoretical frameworks for analyzing the role of intersex activism and advocacy, including their role for community health. International and regional intersex activist networks and human rights bodies have contributed recommendations for protecting the human rights of intersex people and facilitating respectful, non-pathologizing and human rights-based health care approaches. In the presentation, I will focus specifically on the role of community health, forms of collaboration with intersex activism and advocacy, and context-specific opportunities, challenges and strategies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background\" style=\"text-transform:uppercase\">Community health hubs<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<p>You can reflect and discuss in your community health hub on the lessons learnt and how these can be applied to different national and\/or regional contexts.
