This conversation explores why their real-world knowledge and lived experience matter just as much as academic research, and how global health education programs can better recognize and integrate what community health workers are actually doing in the field. • The gap between what health workers know and what gets recognized in formal education • Why frontline experience is essential when academic research has little to offer • How global health courses can blend expert knowledge with practical case studies from the field • Building partnerships that value health worker voices in climate and health education • Creating pathways for community health responders to share their approaches and solutions
