Exploring the impact of COVID-19 on frontline health workers through a photovoice study in Kaduna, Kwara and Ogun States, Nigeria.

COVID-19 highlighted the burden health workers often face. Photovoice allowed a space for frontline health workers to come together to share common experiences, particularly the psychosocial impact of working during health system shocks and its impact on performance. This underlines the need to acknowledge mental health and prioritise the well-being of healthcare staff. Sharing stories from the perspectives of health workers provides a platform to share learning and strategies on how to best support health workers holistically, particularly during health system shocks.
