 “Experts from Below”: Why Local Health Educators are Leaders, Not Just Helpers, during Outbreak Response in Lagos, Nigeria – Bliss


Abstrakt

In this blog, author dives into the ways in which local actors co-define humanitarian governance through their interactions with international humanitarian ‘experts’. During the COVID-19 pandemic, and Cholera epidemic responses in Lagos, Nigeria, local health educators took an important role as ‘translators’ of international scientific knowledge to make it relevant for people in their everyday lives. The blog ends with a call to include local actors as active participants in sector-wide reform efforts, rather than simply as passive implementing partners.
