Ministry of Health – #Lilongwe – #Malawi Ministry of Health and Population. The Ministry of Health headquarters is at Capital Hill in Lilongwe. It has major hospitals (for referral) in all the three regions of the country. The Ministry seeks to achieve health for all Malawians by delivering health services and and disseminating health information to the general public. These endeavors are achieved through the ministry's Mission statement. The current overall policy goal of the health sector, which continues from the previous National Health Plan (1986-1995), is to raise the level of health status of all Malawians by reducing the incidence of illness and occurrence of death in the population. This will be done through the development of a sound delivery system capable of promoting health, preventing, reducing and curing disease, protecting life and fostering general well being and increased productivity. https://lnkd.in/duvCZBbJ #GovernmentDepartment

I had the opportunity to attend a Kenya Medical Association webinar on 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧!, where we explored how #healthcareprofessionals can tackle the devastating impacts of #HouseholdAirPollution (HAP) within #climateresilient health systems. Key statistics from the 𝘎𝘭𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘭 𝘉𝘶𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 (𝘎𝘉𝘋) 2021 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵 show the staggering impact of HAP: 𝟑.𝟏 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐠𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐇𝐀𝐏  𝟕𝟒𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚  𝟐𝟔,𝟐𝟕𝟐 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐊𝐞𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞 Prof. Daniel Pope, started us off by highlighting that globally, #3billion people rely on #pollutingsolidfuels (like wood and charcoal) or kerosene for #cooking and #heating. The exposure to these fuels contributes to #respiratorydiseases, #cardiovascular issues, #pneumonia in children under 5, and #adversepregnancyoutcomes, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Shockingly, #HAP accounts for more than 680,000 premature deaths annually in the region, #surpassing mortality from #malaria and #HIV/AIDS combined. He shed light on how CLEAN-Air(Africa) is actively addressing this critical public health issue by: 1.Informing national policies to promote access to and adoption of 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲. 2.Demonstrating the #positivehealthandclimate impacts from transitioning to clean fuels. 3.#Strengthening health systems through community-led prevention strategies, with the support #CHWs. Lolem Lokolile Bosco picked up the conversation and provided insightful perspectives on #Kenya’s policies for #householdairpollution (HAP) and #climateresilienthealth, particularly the role of the  𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐀𝐢𝐫 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲. #Aligning with the  𝐖𝐇𝐎 𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬, these #frameworks pave the way for healthy energy transitions, focusing on #reducing the #diseaseburden, #enhancinggovernance, and #ensuring effective #monitoring and #evaluation. A huge applause to Dr. Beatrice Muhu for leading this important conversation and to the entire Kenya Medical Association leadership for being at the forefront of addressing #health in #climateaction! As we strive toward achieving #SDG7,ensuring #affordable, #reliable, #sustainable, and #modernenergy for all, it's clear that addressing household #airpollution is not just a #healthissue but a critical component of #climateaction.

Very well articulated piece of knowledge.

We join the rest of the world in commemorating the World Health Day under the theme "My Health, My Right". Access to quality health services remains key to the provision of health rights in all Healthcare Facilities. One area that we are reflecting on, is the rise of infections acquired in #HealthcareFacilities which has costed Malawi millions of dollars every year, leading to thousands of preventable deaths. We continue to urge stakeholders in the #Water, #Sanitation and #Hygiene sector to join in the provision of quality health services and target the reduction of these infections by providing #cleanwater, #decentsanitation and #goodhygiene in our #HealthcareFacilities. #WorldHealthDay2024 #MyHealthMyRight
