Welcome to our tenth episode!! Many have expressed deep frustrations about the lack of representation of people from the "Global South" on decision-making tables including decisions around research priority, programs, policies, and funding. Our guest today shares her experience and opinions on the matter. Lazenya Weekes-Richemond worked in global health for 14 years before deciding to leave her career in global health. As a black woman working on behalf of black and brown people in a predominantly white-led sector, Lazenya’s work now focuses on disrupting the status quo, calling out neo-colonial practices within international development, and offering solutions to redress power imbalances and inequities. She seizes every opportunity to bring attention to health disparities affecting black and brown populations. We are glad that she has seized this opportunity to come on the Global Health Unfiltered Podcast to share her perspective on how to address power imbalances in global health.
