Somali Health Voices Community Event

Badbaadi Bulshada – Somali Health Voices is a community-centered gathering that brings together Somali healthcare professionals, healthcare system leaders, community organizations, researchers, advocates, and community members for an evening of dialogue, reflection, and connection.

The Badbaadi Bulshada Podcast supports health equity, culturally responsive health education, and community awareness around key health topics while amplifying trusted Somali healthcare voices through authentic conversations and storytelling.

Over the past two years, the podcast has engaged healthcare providers, public health experts, researchers, and community leaders in meaningful discussions around maternal health, chronic disease prevention, mental health, children’s health, nutrition, vaccine confidence, healthcare navigation, and other important topics impacting Somali families.

This special event will celebrate the podcast’s journey, impact, and future vision while creating space for collaboration and community engagement. Attendees can expect:

• A live healthcare provider panel discussion
• Reflections on the podcast’s impact and community reach
• Networking opportunities with healthcare professionals and community leaders
• Conversations on culturally responsive healthcare communication
• Opportunities for partnerships, collaboration, and future engagement
• Light refreshments and community connection

Join us as we celebrate the power of storytelling, representation, and trusted community voices in advancing healthier and more informed Somali communities.
