We're excited to share our latest article on Medium, "Transforming Child Healthcare Advocacy: Insights from Operation Smile and Local Leaders in Africa." Africa faces a critical shortage of medical professionals, but the healthcare sector is brimming with potential, driven by the collaborative efforts of local leaders, dedicated teams, volunteers, and strategic partners. At Operation Smile, we are focused on bridging the gap in access to essential surgeries and healthcare, starting with cleft surgery and comprehensive care. With local medical volunteers across the continent, we’re committed to providing high-quality care to all of our patients. Our focus on education and local capacity building paves the way for sustainable healthcare systems. By collaborating with local entities through surgical programs, we facilitate crucial knowledge exchange and innovation. Our comprehensive approach to patient care—including dental, speech, nutrition, and psychological support—ensures our patients receive the care they need. Key partnerships with organizations like COSECSA | The College of Surgeons of East, Central and Southern Africa, CANECSA, American Heart Association, and WFSA (World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists) nurture the next generation of healthcare professionals. Together, through strategic partnerships, innovative solutions, and a shared vision, we are making a tangible difference in the lives of children across Africa.

November 20th holds immense significance for children worldwide as we celebrate #WorldChildrensDay. In 1959, the UN General Assembly took a groundbreaking step by adopting the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. This document emphasised the importance of safeguarding children's rights and ensuring their well-being. Fast forward to 1989. The UN General Assembly adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child, a comprehensive treaty that outlines the fundamental rights of every child globally. These rights include education, protection from exploitation, and access to healthcare including #ClinicalTrials. As Rhian Thomas-Turner said following her secondment as Head of Academic Partnerships at Aparito, "Children need access to good quality clinical trials to support better health outcomes and to provide a greater understanding of how well medicines work for them." "This is why I believe that technology can make such a big difference to paediatric clinical trials and to the lives of children who are participating in them and why I felt it important to fully understand the tools that could support this change." Learn more about Rhian's experience of working at Aparito, cross-sector working and the collective effort to drive more collaboration between industry and academia here 👇 https://hubs.li/Q029qxxH0
