A proud moment at #UNGA81: launching the 2026 Gender Snapshot with DSG @AminaJMohammed and @BjorgSandkjaer. Congratulations to the @UNWomen and @UNDESA teams behind it! The evidence is clear: when women lead and power is shared, decisions change -and the world moves forward.

I co-authored a piece in the @TheLancet with Ebere Okereke, Spring Gombe, and @MagdaNRobalo. We argue the Accra Reset needs to convert "sovereignty" from a talking point into real country power.

The Global health architecture has been seriously disrupted and sovereignty has emerged as a rallying point for reform efforts. Ministries of health will be held accountable for outcomes, yet external partners still control the priorities, the financing channels, the indicators, and the data. That's a governance failure that got us to this point. The Accra Reset provides a real opportunity to fix this failure.

Tooro: New king’s children with Amoding out of succession debate

Babiito Clan spokesman Rev. Fr. Dr Charles Oyo said that Rebecca Amoding, the wife of Tooro’s king-elect Edward Rukidi Nyabongo I, will retain her official status as queen despite being from outside the kingdom.

However, her children are automatically out of any future succession debate because an heir must be born to a mother belonging to one of the recognised clans of Tooro.

Talent is universal, but opportunity is not.

Since 2024, @UNICEF and @UNVolunteers have been changing that through the #YouthOnTheMove Programme, giving young refugees, displaced people and migrants the opportunity to volunteer with the @UN.

[UN Women @UN_Women]

We cannot deliver peace and prosperity for all without women's leadership.

#ForAllWomenAndGirls, we must:

🔵 Let women lead
🔵 Break the barriers holding women back
🔵 Make accountability for equality non-negotiable

I hear and respect the strong feelings about my partner @kizzabesigye1

I am at work, meeting governments, business and other leaders to end AIDS and Ebola, prevent future pandemics and advance Africa’s health sovereignty. There is no leader whose hand I will not shake in pursuit of that work.

I have evidence that KB was abducted by four Ugandan security officials. He remains a prisoner in Uganda. I continue to call on President @KagutaMuseveni Museveni and his son, Muhoozi Kainerugaba to end his persecution and free KB and all political prisoners.

Kenyans are right to demand answers about whether their security agencies played any role in his abduction. Their democracy gives them that right.

We Ugandans continue our struggle for freedom and democracy.

[Amref Health Africa @Amref_Worldwide]

Climate justice requires those most responsible for the crisis to reduce emissions faster and provide grant-based finance that enables African countries to expand renewable energy, strengthen health systems and protect communities from impacts they did little to create.

Meet the @APHRC 2026 Cohort of Interns, a group full of curiosity, energy and big questions about how research can change lives across Africa.
Our conversation reminded me why investing in the next generation of African researchers and leaders is at the heart of what we do.

Sometimes protecting your peace means letting go, choosing yourself, and being intentional about who stays close.
