Health Expert Launches Beyond Awareness Podcast

Health expert Adesola Oyawoye has launched the Beyond Awareness Podcast to move health conversations from mere awareness to meaningful action.
According to Oyawoye, Beyond Awareness features insightful discussions with frontline health professionals, advocates, and changemakers tackling Africa’s most pressing health challenges. Each episode explores critical topics such as mental health, cancer care, maternal health, public health, and grassroots interventions, shedding light on real-world solutions that are making a tangible impact.
“Launched in March 2025, the podcast is more than just a conversation, it’s a movement to drive policy change, challenge health stigmas, and amplify interventions that improve healthcare access across Africa. While based in Nigeria, the podcast is not limited to a Nigerian audience; it is a pan-African platform that brings together voices and experiences from across the continent, ensuring that health solutions are shared, adapted, and scaled to benefit diverse communities.
“With a vision to become Africa’s leading health communication platform, Beyond Awareness Podcast aims to build active partnerships with global health organizations, NGOs, policymakers, and grassroots advocates to ensure that the insights shared translate into real-world impact. Future plans include live panel discussions, exclusive expert interviews, virtual and physical summits, creating spaces where health thought leaders, policymakers, and communities can engage in solution-driven dialogue both online and on the ground. By hosting regional health summits and community outreach programs, the podcast aims to facilitate direct engagement, knowledge exchange, and hands-on policy implementation discussions across Africa.”
