Este centro era un refugio para niños con VIH en Kibera, el mayor barrio de chabolas de África.
Hace ≈3 semanas, en la Casa Blanca se firmó un papel ante las cámaras diciendo disparates sobre 100M de preservativos para Hamás.
Poco después, este centro cerró sin aviso, como tantos otros en África.
If the new U.S. administration shuts down DHS program as part of its anti-science/anti-academic agenda, it would trigger the largest data blackout in the history of dev. countries. There would be neither the funding nor the means to design meaningful, evidence-based policies.

And yes, it's the same outfit every day—shoutout to Royal Air Maroc for losing my bag! But look at this sunset:
Two intense weeks in rural central and southern Nigeria conducting qualitative surveys with @jorgeghombrados —packed with valuable lessons for my research. Highlight? Finding my favorite anthropologist at a Domino's near the Cameroon border.
