Urban-Rural Continuum: Navigating Social Norms and Bridging Disparities in Health in Nigeria

Tuesday, September 12, 2023 • Duration 48:40

The urban-rural divide in health is a major public health problem in Nigeria. People living in rural areas are more likely to experience poor health, have lower life expectancy, and have less access to healthcare. For example, the maternal mortality rate in rural areas is twice as high as in urban areas, and the infant mortality rate in rural areas is 15% higher than in urban areas. This is due to a number of factors, including poverty, limited access to healthcare, difficult terrain, and social norms. Social norms can play a significant role in shaping health outcomes, such as the social norm in some rural communities that discourages women from seeking healthcare during pregnancy and childbirth. The podcast episode will explore the urban-rural continuum in Nigeria and discuss the challenges of bridging disparities in health with Dr. Shittu of Breakthrough ACTION Nigeria, Dr karaunmata, the Deputy Director public health and Disease Control from Kano state ministry of Health

Social Norms and Women's Mental Health

Monday, June 5, 2023 • Duration 01:01:24

The mental health challenges faced by women are unique and varied across different stages of life. From adolescence to menopause, women may face a range of stressors and pressures that can impact their mental well-being, including societal expectations, gender-based discrimination, hormonal changes, and caregiving responsibilities. These challenges are often worsened by stigma and lack of access to resources. Addressing women's mental health needs is crucial to breaking the cycle of mental health challenges.
