In Nigeria sollte der Zugang zur medizinischen Grundversorgung kein Privileg sein, aber f\u00fcr viele ist er ein unerf\u00fcllbarer Traum. Wir haben diesen Kampf aus erster Hand miterlebt - die langen Wartezeiten, den Mangel an Ressourcen, die verzweifelten Entscheidungen, die die Menschen treffen m\u00fcssen. Die Kosten der gesundheitlichen Ungleichheit sind nicht nur finanzieller Art; sie werden in Form von zu fr\u00fch verlorenen Leben bezahlt, in Familien, die durch vermeidbare Krankheiten auseinandergerissen werden. Diese Realit\u00e4t hat etwas tief in uns ausgel\u00f6st, die Entschlossenheit, etwas zu \u00e4ndern.<\/p>

Wir haben Equitable Medicaid and Clinical Research Ltd\/Gte gegr\u00fcndet, weil wir nicht tatenlos zusehen konnten, wie so viele Menschen in unseren Gemeinden leiden. Wir wussten, dass der Kreislauf der Vernachl\u00e4ssigung weitergehen w\u00fcrde, wenn wir nicht handeln w\u00fcrden. Krankheiten, die behandelt werden k\u00f6nnten, wurden vernachl\u00e4ssigt, weil es in unserem Land so gut wie keine fortschrittliche klinische Forschung und Studien gab. Wir sahen zu, wie Menschen - echte Menschen mit Hoffnungen, Tr\u00e4umen und geliebten Menschen - zu Statistiken wurden, deren Leben verk\u00fcrzt wurde, weil sie keinen Zugang zu der ben\u00f6tigten Behandlung hatten.<\/p>

In l\u00e4ndlichen Gebieten und st\u00e4dtischen Elendsvierteln, wo das t\u00e4gliche Leben bereits ein Kampf ist, treffen Gesundheitskrisen am h\u00e4rtesten. Vermeidbare Krankheiten fordern stillschweigend Menschenleben, und die traditionelle Medizin, die in unserer Kultur einen hohen Stellenwert hat, schadet manchmal mehr als sie n\u00fctzt, wenn sie nicht ordnungsgem\u00e4\u00df klinisch getestet wird. Wir sehen diesen Missbrauch nicht als ein Versagen der Tradition, sondern als ein Versagen des Systems, das sichere und wirksame Praktiken unterst\u00fctzt.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

F\u00fcr Frauen und junge M\u00e4dchen steht sogar noch mehr auf dem Spiel. Die M\u00fcttersterblichkeit ist eine tragische Realit\u00e4t, die durch einen Mangel an Bildung und Ressourcen im Bereich der sexuellen und reproduktiven Gesundheit noch verst\u00e4rkt wird. Fr\u00fche Eheschlie\u00dfungen, ungewollte Schwangerschaften und die Ausbreitung von Krankheiten sind nicht nur ein Problem, sondern eine Krise, mit der unsere M\u00fctter, Schwestern und T\u00f6chter jeden Tag konfrontiert sind. Das veraltete System, das sich auf Papierunterlagen st\u00fctzt, macht es nur noch schwieriger, die Versorgung zu gew\u00e4hrleisten, die Leben retten k\u00f6nnte.<\/p>

Auch \u00e4ltere Menschen werden oft vergessen und in ihren letzten Lebensjahren mit wenig oder gar keiner Unterst\u00fctzung allein gelassen. Psychische Gesundheit wird ignoriert, und die Leidenden werden beiseite geschoben, ihr Schmerz wird als Aberglaube abgetan. Wir sehen sie auf der Stra\u00dfe, verloren in ihren K\u00e4mpfen, und wir wissen, dass diese Stigmatisierung ein Ende haben muss.<\/p>

Aus diesem Grund haben wir Equitable Medicaid and Clinical Research gegr\u00fcndet. Wir sind nicht irgendeine Organisation, sondern Menschen, die glauben, dass jedes Leben, egal wie klein oder marginalisiert, wichtig ist. Wir konzentrieren uns auf die Menschen, die zur\u00fcckgelassen wurden, und bringen die Gesundheitsversorgung zu denen, die sie am meisten brauchen. Unsere Arbeit wird von einer einfachen Wahrheit angetrieben: Jedes Leben ist wichtig.<\/p>

Dies ist f\u00fcr uns nicht nur ein Motto, sondern ein Versprechen. Wir sind hier, um wirklich etwas zu bewirken, um die Geschichte derer zu ver\u00e4ndern, die vergessen wurden. Und wir werden nicht aufh\u00f6ren, bis jeder Mensch in jeder Gemeinschaft die Chance hat, ein gesundes und w\u00fcrdiges Leben zu f\u00fchren.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
