In this episode, we explore the importance of bridging and relational infrastructure to achieving healthy communities.
Our guest is Nang Mo Kham, Eisenhower Fellow & senior health specialist at the World Bank.
Based in Myanmar. Nang sees herself as someone who can help establish a system that knits together local services, including education, public health, and others, to improve access for everyone, no matter their social status, background, or ethnicity… and thus improve the overall health of her community.
Nang’s work aligns with the civity principles of building relational infrastructure to bridge difference and move from us-vs-them to ‘We All Belong.’
We were also joined in this episode by our Civity intern, Maya Fiorella.
Civity is a culture of deliberately engaging in relationships of respect and empathy with others who are different.
Our world today is one of haves and have-nots, insiders and outsiders, people who belong and people who are marginalized because they are other.
By reaching out person-to-person to others who are different, all of us together create the relational infrastructure to build solidarity, justice, and resilience in our communities.
Our differences are our strengths. This is ‘civity.’
Our podcast showcases interviews with people bridging power-based divides to move communities forward on issues grounded in inequities.
