About this listen
Public health professional Moses Banda Aron (Moshe) from Malawi joins the podcast to discuss his work tackling a severe and often neglected disease: snake bites. He explains that people in the global South who work in rural and agricultural areas which change as climate changes, are highly exposed to this risk. Aron shares his personal journey from mathematics to public health, and details his current project: working with doctors to establish a call center to provide crucial guidance for snake bite cases, highlighting the desperate need for local, community-based health solutions in drylands.
In the background you can hear happy voices from the conference lunch break.
