Climate change is not gender-neutral. Women face rising maternal mortality, gender-based violence, and lost access to reproductive healthcare when climate disasters hit—yet these impacts remain underreported. Climate justice must include gender justice. #NowForClimate #WorldEnvironmentDay

On this Menstrual Hygiene Day, we're standing together for a world where everyone who menstruates can do so safely, with dignity, and without shame. Getting there takes all of us—governments, communities, and individuals—working together. #MenstrualHygieneDay

This #May28, we stand with women & girls everywhere: sexual and reproductive health, rights & justice (SRHRJ) are non-negotiable. No one should be denied essential care because they can't afford it. Strengthening health systems is essential, not optional. #SRHRJ #HealthForAll

At #DevexImpactHouse on the sidelines of #WHA79, Dr. Magda Robalo spoke on the next era of African health security. "We have had more reporting and meetings and summits than real work." The knowledge exists—what's missing is execution and investment. #GlobalHealth

Clean water and safe sanitation are essential to health and development. Women and girls across Africa continue to face the greatest health risks from unsafe water and poor sanitation systems. This #AfricaDay, we reaffirm: access to clean water is a right, not a privilege.

Crises are gendered. Preparedness must be, too. At #WHA79, Women in Global Health demands women’s leadership in emergencies, SRHR continuity, and gendered risk analysis. Non-negotiable. #WomenInGlobalHealth #GenderEquality

70% of the global health workforce are women. Still underpaid. Still underrepresented. Still unprotected. At #WHA79, Women in Global Health demands a new deal: fair pay, safe work, and women in leadership. #WomenInGlobalHealth #GenderEquality

At a CSW70 side event, Pio Smith of UNFPA highlighted key gaps: women lead the workforce but not decision-making, midwifery remains underfunded, and data gaps persist. UHC requires gender-responsive systems that truly invest in women. #CSW70 #GlobalHealth #GenderEquality #UHC

This is the job many women in global health never applied for,yet are expected to do daily. Care. Crisis response. Emotional labour. Often without power or pay. Equity means redesigning the system. Now, over to you, what would a fair job description look like?

Leadership doesn’t always start with ambition. Sometimes, it starts with discomfort. For Dr. Funmilola Adio, witnessing health inequities faced by women and girls became the catalyst to lead, advocating for #UHC and equitable health systems in Nigeria. Read her story: https://bit.ly/4bncSvs

Education isn’t just about learning. It’s also about participation. When young people are co-creators of the systems shaping their future, education drives lasting change. #InternationalDayOfEducation #Education2030 #YouthLeadership

The idea that gender equity has been achieved is comforting, but false. From pay gaps to leadership exclusion and healthcare access, women still face systemic barriers every day. That’s why advocacy matters. Now more than ever. #genderequity #advocacy #womeninglobal health
