#BioTalkAlert What is SWAp in Health? Towards the end of last year, SWAp - Sector Wide Approach - in health started getting popular. When the Ekiti State Health Financing Officer, Gbenga Ogunlana was made the State Desk Officer for SWAp in Ekiti State, MicroBiotics stated developing real interest. And when we were informed that we would be providing a much-needed publicity for the programme that SWAp will be supporting in few days time, we knew it was time to really get involved and know more about what this approach is all about. In this latest edition of #BioTalkSpotlight, we delved into the topic, taking our information as presented by the notable health information source: the Nigerian Healthwatch... ...from notable personalities in health sector like the Commisoners for Health in Ekiti and Rivers States, Dr. Oyebanji Filani and Dr. Adaeze Oreh respectively; the Chief of Health, UNICEF Nigeria, Eduardo Celedes, and the Nigeria Coordinating Minister for Health, Prof. Ali Pate. And finally, a call-in was made by Mr. Gbenga Ogunlana, who finally breaks the topic down to practical understanding, and brings home what SWAp is really about at the state level. It was really an eye opener even for us. Happy viewing and listening. 🙂
