Sustainable Innovation in Global Health Technology (SIGHT)

A scientist wearing a white lab coat and blue gloves works at a biosafety cabinet in a laboratory, handling samples with tools under bright, sterile lighting.

FLIGHT

Two female researchers in white lab coats and bright orange protective gloves work together in a modern laboratory. One researcher, wearing glasses, operates a computer while standing at a workstation connected to large analytical equipment. Her colleague stands beside her, observing the process closely. A microscope and other laboratory instruments are visible in the foreground, while the background shows additional lab benches and equipment, creating a busy scientific research environment.

BRITE

A diverse group of people sit around round tables at a busy conference or workshop, smiling and clapping. In the centre, a woman in a light purple top and patterned hijab laughs with others, while posters, hanging decorations and screens create a colourful, lively backdrop.

Peer breastfeeding support for mothers of low-birth-weight infants in western Kenya

A premature baby is cared for in the pediatric ward at Yekatit Hospital in Addis Ababa. One in thirty-two babies in the developing world will die within their first month. The Ethiopian government has launched new programs to train community health workers on clean and safe delivery methods and early postnatal care for the mother and baby.

Co-developing an online course for Health Practitioners in Africa: Nutrition for Low Birthweight (LBW) and premature infants

UK aid is supporting the production and distribution of nutrient-enriched peanut paste in Kenya, to help treat children suffering from malnutrition as a result of the extended drought which is gripping much of the country. Over 2.7 million people have been affected by the drought in Kenya, including over 1 million children. Over 100,000 of those are children under 5 years old who are in need of treatment for severe malnutrition.The UK has already provided funding for 14,000 cartons of the peanut paste in Kenya, enough to treat 14,000 severely malnourished children since October 2016. Each carton contains 150 sachets of the paste, which are dosed at approximately 3 per child per day for about 2 weeks. The paste (which is also known as 'Plumpy Nut' or RUTF - Ready to Use Therapeutic Food) helps malnourished children regain weight and nutrition quickly and safely. Most children will recover within 2 weeks of treatment, whereas many would die without it. The UK has recently provided an additional £4 million funding to UNICEF to enable them to locate and treat an additional 70,000 of the most severely malnourished children at risk this year. Repeated failed rains have left Kenya facing it's worst drought crisis in over 30 years. The drought is also affecting millions of people in South Sudan, Somalia and Ethiopia.
