Break it Down
Good healthcare is not only the absence of illness but the complete social, mental, and physical well-being of humans. Governments work to improve healthcare with tools often referred to as policies. But citizens barely engage with these or other important conversations that impact their lives. The Break it Down Podcast is here to close that gap by simplifying and breaking down these concepts and policies so you can engage meaningfully. You should listen if you are someone curious about understanding how things work and contributing to conversations that impact our lives.You can reach us via podcasts@nigeriahealthwatch.com
