Proud to have been a stakeholder for this important work.

In this work, we also explored the use of Reflexive Thematic Analysis in health policy analysis to better situate power & positionalities, develop analytical depth and generate coherent yet multi-dimensional themes. Hope this will be of interest! 😊 @ginnybraun.bsky.social @vicclarke.bsky.social
