Aren’t we frontline warriors? : experiences of grassroots health workers during COVID-19.

Abstract
‘Aren’t we frontline warriors?’ asks a community health worker in a webinar that we had
organised in May 2020 where grassroots health care workers were at the centre stage
sharing their experience of working during COVID-19.1
This question resonates with several
other community health workers who have been braving their lives against all odds to
protect the communities against COVID-19. Yet a sense of lack of recognition of their
contributions distinctly looms large! The idea of this compendium arises from the felt need
of the community health workers to be heard. It was evident during the webinar that spaces
for sharing such experiences are few while opportunities for garnering support and shared
learning are many.
