About OpenNiqash

OpenNiqash is a growing and diverse network of public health advocates and innovators. We analyze strategies, find gaps, brainstorm ideas, and engage in a solution-driven dialogue.

We provide an open space to explore why health matters, and to engage the public in debates and policies that help build a healthy society.

This is an independent multi-contributor platform and we are continuously seeking to broaden our team.
