Global Health Summit Opens in Nairobi
The World Patients Alliance concluded its 3rd World Patients Conference in Nairobi today, per Detroit News. The summit brought together healthcare advocates and patients from over 50 countries to discuss global health equity.
Researchers at the University of Nairobi validated a new Joy Scale specifically for Black queer men during the conference, as reported by Bioengineer.org. The tool aims to better understand mental health in underrepresented populations.
Meanwhile, Kenya's national women's rugby team, the Kenya Lionesses, suffered a narrow defeat to Uganda at the Africa Women's 7s in Nairobi, Capital FM notes. The match was part of the ongoing regional tournament.
