Must it be this difficult to survive as a Community Health Worker?
The Ministries of Health in the Global South and billionaire-run charitable organisations reportedly face "several constraints" when it comes to paying the community health workers, most of them underprivileged women, they're heavily reliant on in executing their respective big-budget healthcare programmes. But the organisations actively promote their concern for the health and wellbeing of other impoverished women.
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has granted funds to Women in Global Health "to research the status of women's leadership in the health sector in Nigeria, Kenya and India". However, the foundation hasn't yet been able to move on any further from "thinking critically" about how to support the community health workers.
Only 25% of women occupy leadership positions in health globally when over 65% of jobs in the health sector are held by women. About six million female health workers hardly receive any financial compensation for their life-saving services. Despite being the only source of primary health care to the poorest sections of the society, many community health aides have no access to transport facilities that would enable them to deliver their services in a timely manner without having to exhaust themselves by walking long distances to visit the targeted households. In regions plagued by conflict, these workers find it even more challenging to help the sick in the absence of essential supplies and transport.
Philanthropists, "in collaboration with" the governments of the respective countries their charitable programmes are put in place, find it cost-effective to budget healthcare programmes without giving the community health workers their due. These overburdened and unsalaried health workers, having no proper formal training, enough personal protective equipment, and protection against gender-based violence, are left to explore ways to lobby politicians from their remote locations in the hope of beginning to receive a living wage.
When frustrated community health workers go on a strike to claim their deserved remuneration, poverty-stricken adults and children are badly affected. The world's largest community health workforce, the Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs), are still keeping up their fight for a fixed minimum wage and other basic benefits that any person performing tasks on behalf of the government should be entitled to.
We have social entrepreneurs commercialising Africa's issue of inadequate access to healthcare to solve it. It's disturbing to imagine a community health worker trying to interest the caregivers of a sick child into purchasing a solar lamp and other products in exchange for a diagnosis. These community health workers, at the mercy of the entrepreneurs who are slow to hire and quick to fire, will lose their only source of income – about 20 USD a month – if they fail to become successful salespeople. These workers, also labelled as "agents" by the social entrepreneurs, end up spending their hard-earned money on purchasing their respective employers' products to sell to the poor at a near-market price. Even the charitable organisations that take pride in giving the community health workers financial (based on "the geographic differences in labour costs") and non-financial incentives are simply the enablers of wage slavery.
However, a Coalition of these organisations began in 2019 after claiming to have demonstrated that salaried (the amount of the salary being as low as 10 or 20 USD per month) and digitally equipped community health workers can stop preventable deaths in the outlying parts of Africa where more than 80% of the community health workers still remain unpaid.
The essence of health aides has been known since the late 1800s when Russia's Feldshers treated people in the rural regions in the absence of physicians. But the the idea that the community health workers deserve a salary for their back-breaking work just started being popularized, through "in-depth research" and "advocacy", by the Coalition which is now composed of about five thousand community health workers, for-profit companies and corporations, and other non-governmental organisations.
But why do these social entrepreneurs, investing in micro-franchising Africa's health sector by training and monitoring the community health workers using advanced technology, avoid paying their employed workers a living wage? Well, they simply blame the World Bank for asking the respective governments of the countries they work in to avoid inflating the workers' wage bill...
For many rural healthcare workers who are merely treated as volunteers in the least developed nations, joining hands with the Coalition, that emphasizes on a goal of technologically upgrading the services of the community health workers, may be their only way towards getting any recognition, even if it's a monthly stipend of 30 USD, from their respective governments. At a time when many care workers of the USA, the country that dominates the international financial institutions like the World Bank, would rather wait tables at an eatery than work in the health sector, it's probably too early to imagine a bright future for the community health workers in economically poor countries. The question is, when will the few individuals in power face "constraints" that prevent the inequitable distribution of wealth in this world?

Last Line Tag
I've been tagged by @ahordeofwasps, @tailoroffates and @author-a-holmes to share the last line bit of writing I've done. And since I've been recently ambushed by a new WIP idea, you get a very small sneak peek into a short story I'm tentatively calling Two Lefts.
Chwith lowered her hands, patting the scabbards at her hips by way of reassurance. They held the kind of protection she trusted, something she could hold and use for herself.

The ASPI study extrapolates by observing 533 mosques (out of a total of 24,000 in the whole of XUAR, according to the same report - ie 2%) & claims at max 170 of those 533 mosques destroyed with direct satellite observation - & again this is literally without exaggeration a study funded by Lockheed
The CHW Nakhichevan study checks 108 sites & does no extrapolation on those. Not only is the relative % higher, but the absolute number claimed as directly observed is comparable.
Nakhichivan is 6,000 sq miles large. XUAR is 650,000 sq miles large.
Genocides & Cultural Erasure don't stop part of the way through unless stopped by force.

'oh akshully critique and criticism aren't the same and you didn't say you didn't want criticism, sweaty :)' I'm sorry but they are the same, the only difference is that criticism (what you did) is always negative and rude and seeks to tear the person you're throwing it at down instead of helping that person in any way. look it up lol and I need neither because I know my weaknesses and don't need user fartso69 on the internet to tell them to me. if you wanted to politely tell me something, that would have been FINE, that counts as FEEDBACK which was something I said was okay. but no instead i was called gross not five minutes after posting a stupid FREE fanfic, I was called a dipshit, I was called stupid and I was told I write like shit like yeah I know all that but these people actually thought they were in the right doing that because 'but you called names too!' yeah, you wanted me to sit back and take abuse over some fictional shit? keep dreaming. god i really dislike fandoms. but im a masochist so here we are.
