Global South's Health Care Wisdom Ignored by Wealthy Nations

Dr. Matthew Harris, a public health researcher at Imperial College London, discusses his book "Decolonizing Healthcare Innovation: Low-Cost Solutions from Low-Income Countries" and the biases that prevent researchers and clinicians from the Global South from being heard in the field of global health. He highlights the importance of learning from low-income countries and their frugal innovations in healthcare, which often deliver similar outcomes at a fraction of the cost. Harris also emphasizes the need for both soft and radical reforms to decolonize global health and create a more equitable knowledge ecosystem.
