We have lost touch with our staff in Gaza, with health facilities, health workers and the rest of our humanitarian partners on the ground. This siege makes me gravely concerned for their safety and the immediate health risks of vulnerable patients. We urge immediate protection

While education and knowledge about health, including health literacy, are essential, they may not guarantee the ability to adopt healthy behaviours. #AI #globalgoals #ReachHealth #DigitalHealth

Thank you for having me on the panel. Such a fantastic workshop that really made the case for public and private sector partnerships.

Access to healthcare remains an ongoing global issue. Many individuals are denied the essential care they need to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Mandela's insight is a compass, guiding us towards a more inclusive and compassionate society. #ReachHealth #GlobalGoals

Despite severe disruption by the #COVID19 pandemic, more vaccines were administered by lower-income countries in 2021 than at any other time in history. The Vaccine Impact Conference, co-hosted by @Gavi and @SpainMFA celebrates this resilience:

P.S. You’ll be pleased to know that despite the terrible handicap of my gender I was able to find and resolve the issue last night myself.

In your staff training perhaps you should teach some basic principles like male != technical, female != nontechnical. Case study A: I have a degree in electronic and software engineering and am the CEO of a tech company.

Indeed there have been some examples where organizers have ensured more representation from the global south but these are unfortunately in the minority as far as I’ve seen. Much more work to be done!

It’s interesting being in rooms that are mostly white & elite or global north (incl. me) & talking about #equity for lmics. We talk about success from our gaze w/o nuance & layers that we may be missing. There are good intentions. But that’s not enough for real change. #WHA76

Great insights shared at the @JNJGlobalHealth Strengthening Health Systems event in Geneva. Also I do love seeing an all woman panel - especially when discussing issues that health workers, who are primarily women, face. #WHA76 #HealthForAll @lastmilehealth @Amref_Worldwide

Going into #WHA76, excited to see many countries shifting from fragmented #DigitalHealth to National Digital Transformation. @WHO is proud to help member-states work towards leveraging strategies, architecture and appropriate technologies to achieve #UHC. https://t.co/nRJL5E7b1b
