Research explores strengthening local, community-based systems rather than relying only on state or international intervention.
Resilience and Local Mitigation: Studying how individuals, families, and communities mitigate health crises without external aid to identify self-organizing mechanisms.
Integrating Traditional Systems: Investigating how to better incorporate community members into local health system design to improve responsiveness.
Localizing Research Capacity: Focusing on training and retaining researchers in developing countries, allowing them to define their own needs rather than reacting to global agendas.
Risks posed by the One Health agenda
Digital Health Decentralization: Analyzing the challenges of fragmented digital systems (e.g., vendor lock-ins, interoperability) within decentralized, polycentric healthcare models.
Addressing Power Asymmetries: Examining how to structure international health governance in a multi-nation state approach.
