IntraHealth International is pleased to announce VITAL, its newly redesigned blog dedicated to global health, health care, and the health workers who make it all happen: http://www.intrahealth.org/vital.

“To really advocate for and support health workers, IntraHealth and other organizations have to communicate the vital role health workers play in all of our lives,” says Laura Hoemeke, director of communications and advocacy at IntraHealth. “VITAL is the newest part of IntraHealth’s efforts to do just that. We’re bringing together voices and perspectives from around the world to discuss people-focused global health. That means ensuring that health workers are front and center—and supported.”

At VITAL, IntraHealth posts on the most important global health and workforce topics of the day, including access to care, gender equality, technology, training, preventive care and disease, and the health systems that make care available to populations around the world. Readers will enjoy browsing photos and reading high-quality blog posts by professionals and experts from throughout the field of global health—all in an attractive new format.

Through a new feature called Picture It, readers can see candid photos of real health workers in dozens of countries, as well as the clients they care for.

IntraHealth invites readers to stay up to date with new content, browse the archives, and get involved with one of the best resources on the web dedicated to the people who make health care happen. Read more at http://www.intrahealth.org/vital.
