WHO WE ARE

What About Rural Health?™ (WARH?) is a digital multimedia communication brand committed to elevating rural health to the center stage of global health discourse. Through engagement, knowledge exchange, and solution-driven collaborations, WARH intensifies the urgent need for investment, policy reform, and programmatic action to improve healthcare delivery in limited-resource and hard-to-reach communities.

Convened by Chinasa Imo, WARH? mirrors the intersectional realities shaping rural health and how they impact global health outcomes —from education, climate, and environmental justice to cultural sensitivity, technology, and innovation. Rooted in a global perspective, we drive conversations and actions that place rural health where it belongs: at the heart of health systems transformation.
