TODAY IN GLOBAL HEALTH | Knowledge, Power and the Politics of Care

This episode of Today in Global Health examines how expatriate doctors and researchers engage with health systems in Nigeria and across Africa — learning local techniques, practices, and knowledge that are sometimes later patented and commercialised elsewhere. The conversation interrogates who owns medical knowledge, who benefits from it, and how power continues to shape global health relationships.

The discussion also turns to the decolonisation of health, challenging inherited frameworks and questioning how Africa understands, values, and structures its own health systems. Insightful and reflective, this episode calls for a rethinking of care, ownership, and equity in global health practice.
