Making connections across sectors to connect communities & improve well being, with Nang Mo Kham of the Word Bank

In this episode, we explore the importance of making connections across sectors 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.

This is Civity week on NIC. Civity is a culture of deliberately engaging in relationships of respect and empathy with others who are different. 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 are also joined in this episode by Civity intern, Maya Fiorella.
