On #WorldHealthDay, we remember Henry Dunant who established @ICRC with the main objective of offering access to medical care for all soldiers. Dunant was awarded the very first Nobel Peace Prize in 1901 and the Red Cross have received the Nobel Peace Prize three times.

#WorldHealthDay - time to remember the factors that contribute to well-being: education, race, gender, disability, housing, income, employment, climate, geography, history, access to care & more. Fighting for fairness & looking out for the well-being of others, benefits us all.

Can't wait to see the passion this investment brings! (My "unpaid" WHO internship has hands-down been my most formative career experience --it would not have been possible without an external grant to cover my costs. Truly thrilled that @WHO and @wellcometrust have teamed up.)
Bringing diversity and inclusion & equitable opportunity to @WHO - @wellcometrust delighted and honoured to play a role - @DrTedros @doctorsoumya
