Strengthening health systems involves recognising the importance of community health workers (CHWs) and addressing their mental well-being and agency. CHWs play a vital role in delivering healthcare services and bridging the gap between formal healthcare systems and local communities. However, they often face numerous challenges, including heavy workloads, limited resources, insufficient training, and inadequate support, which can negatively impact their mental health and overall well-being.
We envision a world where CHWs are empowered, supported, and thriving. Our mission is to strengthen health systems by prioritising the mental health and well-being of those who serve at the frontline of healthcare delivery.
