Barbara Bale Newborn and Child Survival Director |
In 1989, following clinical practice in the UK and Hong Kong, Barbara began her development career with Save the Children UK in Hong Kong helping to provide community health services to Vietnamese asylum seekers and refugees. At that time the Hong Kong office also hosted the China Programme. Captivated by all things Vietnamese, Barbara joined Save the Children US in Viet Nam in 1996 based in Ha Noi. Broadening the focus of the programme to include maternal as well as child health was a key objective and entailed some hard work and adventures in the mountains and deltas of Viet Nam. The next few years saw Barbara work mainly on reproductive and child health with a variety of health and development organisations including WHO, UNFPA, PATH and CARE, mostly in Viet Nam but occasionally in Myanmar too. In 2006 Barbara moved to Cambodia and worked on a cross border migration project as well as projects addressing avian influenza, TB, maternal-child health and health financing. Returning to Save the Children in 2009 as the Newborn and Child Survival Director for the China Programme feels like her destiny! Barbara has an honours degree in Nursing from Sheffield, a master’s degree in Medical Anthropology from the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, and is a registered midwife.
