Throughout her career, she has led strategic and evaluative initiatives that have shaped major global health programs and investments. Notable achievements include revising USAID’s maternal and child health investment frameworks to align with the Sustainable Development Goals, evaluating USAID’s flagship maternal and child health program, and designing a $1 billion successor strategy. In addition, she led the evaluation of the $3.5 billion Feed the Future nutrition portfolio, providing evidence that informed its Congressional reauthorization.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“The throughline of Allyson’s professional trajectory has been a profound commitment to alleviating human suffering and promoting human dignity and health for all—a background that aligns deeply with Jhpiego’s longstanding mission to provide access to lifesaving health care where it is needed most,” said Johns Hopkins University President Ron Daniels in an email to the Johns Hopkins University community. “She brings a proven track record in strategic growth, innovation, and resource mobilization across the global health, economic development, and humanitarian sectors.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Dr. Bear began her career focused on global market shaping and scale-up efforts, starting with Gavi’s PneumoADIP and Hib Initiative, where she provided technical assistance to Ministries of Health for vaccine rollout and impact evaluations. From 2009 to 2015, she worked at USAID, leading the development of flagship U.S. Government health initiatives. She has also held leadership positions at Corus International and Abt Associates, managing global health and economic development portfolios across West Africa, francophone Central Africa, North Africa, and the Middle East. Dr. Bear has worked in more than 45 countries worldwide, including 11 years of residence in multiple countries throughout Africa and Asia.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“It has been a privilege to lead Jhpiego over the last 25 years, and I could not be more confident as I pass the baton to Dr. Allyson Bear,” said Dr. Leslie Mancuso, outgoing president and CEO of Jhpiego. “Her commitment to improving global health and her thoughtful, values-driven leadership give me great optimism for the future of the organization.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Dr. Bear will succeed Dr. Leslie Mancuso, who has led Jhpiego since 2001 and announced her planned retirement in 2024. Under Dr. Mancuso’s leadership, Jhpiego has evolved from an organization with four core programs focused on family planning and cervical cancer prevention into one of the world’s most respected global health entities, now operating in 39 countries.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>To learn more about Dr. Bear, \u003Cstrong>\u003Ca href=\"https://hub.jhu.edu/2026/03/17/allyson-bear-named-jhpiego-president-ceo/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https://hub.jhu.edu/2026/03/17/allyson-bear-named-jhpiego-president-ceo/\">read the Johns Hopkins University Hub article here.\u003C/a>\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003C/p>\n","\u003Cp>Johns Hopkins University has announced that Dr. Allyson Bear will be Jhpiego’s next president and CEO.

apparent if one sees self-care as separate or in opposition to health care services. But this is just one of many misconceptions about self-care that exist: that midwives and other health care providers are opposed to individuals, families and communities preventing disease and coping with illness with&nbsp;\u003Cem>or without\u003C/em>&nbsp;their support.

The mindset that says, “I should be able to cope. . . I don’t have time for self-care. . . I need to do other things first” comes at a cost. A review of care providers in sub-Saharan Africa reveals midwives experience high rates of burnout, along with emotional exhaustion and other physical issues.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Health care providers need to take their own health off the backburner and walk the talk by practicing self-care in addition to promoting it to patients. Self-care should be integrated with occupational health and safety in workplaces. Employee wellness programs can also address self-care by health care providers.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Taking care of ourselves is selfish and takes too much time.\u003C/strong>\u003C/h4>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>The facts:\u003C/strong>&nbsp;The survey of Rwandan midwives reveals that 79% of respondents don’t have time to take care of themselves.

The pandemic has demonstrated that patients can safely practice self-care in the privacy of their homes by using evidence-based tools and approaches, thus reducing their risk of infection.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Self-care, which has existed for millennia and will continue to exist after the pandemic ends, is for everyone at all times. COVID-19 has created a critical opportunity to chart a new frontier in health care.

Leadership: A Participatory Toolkit for Health Workers","\n\u003Cp>Women make up 70% of the 200 million workers globally who contribute to the health and social sector, but women only hold 25% of leadership roles.\u003Csup>1\u003C/sup>&nbsp;What’s more, nearly half of women’s contribution to global health is informal or unpaid.\u003Csup>1\u003C/sup>Norms related to job choice, division of

professionally.\u003Csup>1\u003C/sup>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A lack of gender balance at every level of health leadership is detrimental—health systems lose female talent, perspectives, and knowledge because of it. The World Health Organization (WHO) notes that equal representation of genders at all levels of an organization and in different health sub-sectors leads not only to an empowered workforce, but also to improved quality of care and solutions shaped by a better understanding of health systems.\u003Csup>1\u003C/sup>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The COVID-19 pandemic provides a clear example. Despite the pandemic’s disproportionate effect on women and girls, in part because of their overwhelming presence on the front lines as health care workers and caregivers, women are underrepresented in decision-making. Women comprise just 10% of the representatives of the U.S. Coronavirus Task Force and 20% of the WHO Emergency Committee on COVID-19.\u003Csup>2\u003C/sup>&nbsp;A global survey of 30 countries found that women represent an average of 24% of national-level decision-making bodies on COVID-19.\u003Csup>3\u003C/sup>&nbsp;By failing to include women’s voices, we not only lose critical technical expertise, but also increase the risk of implementing policies that fail to account for the gender dimensions of health emergencies.\u003Csup>2\u003C/sup>&nbsp;Losing gains in access to sexual and reproductive health services, overlooking negative consequences of epidemics on maternal and child health, failing to address the increased risk for gender-based violence—specifically intimate partner violence—due to lock-downs, and limiting conversations on economic recovery to the formal sector are just some of the consequences of gender-blind policies that do not also consider the intersectional needs of women.\u003Csup>2–4&nbsp;\u003C/sup>(Intersectionality recognizes that women are not a homogenous group, and that gender interacts with other determinants like age, geographical location, sexuality, class, religion, ethnicity, citizenship, and disability to shape access to services and health outcomes.\u003Csup>5\u003C/sup>)&nbsp;&nbsp;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Given this backdrop, there is no better time than now to invest in gender-transformative leadership to promote gender equality in health organizations and, more broadly, in the communities where they work.\u003Csup>6\u003C/sup>&nbsp;(Gender-transformative leadership development offers deliberate consideration of both formal and informal gender power structures and discriminatory practices.\u003Csup>6\u003C/sup>) To address factors contributing to the global gender gap in leadership, Jhpiego’s recently launched&nbsp;\u003Cem>Gender Transformation for Health: A Toolkit for Health Workers\u003C/em>&nbsp;covers topics like global disparities in women’s leadership, gender as a determinant of career advancement, gendered patterns of communication, mentorship and sponsorship, and linkages between power, gender norms, and sexual harassment.&nbsp;\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The toolkit reflects numerous calls to action for equitable representation of women in global health decision-making. The strategies shared in the toolkit’s modules apply an intersectional lens and complement existing leadership curricula, providing tools to health care workers and managers to advance gender equality.
