BREAKING: President Barack Obama just said President Biden is having one of the most successful Presidential terms of all time. Retweet so all Americans hear this incredible praise.
How to succeed as a woman in the still male-dominated field of foreign policy?
In a conversation with @kajakallas and @HillaryClinton, the new cohort of our Women Parliamentarians Program exchanged experiences and connected for the first time at #MSC2024.
Dürfen wir vorstellen? Der Beirat für #SozialeInnovationen!
Er wird uns bei der Umsetzung und Weiterentwicklung der Nationalen Strategie für Soziale Innovationen und Gemeinwohlorientierte Unternehmen beraten. @ZarahBruhn 👉 https://t.co/8lh7lKamGg
The Paris Summit for a New Global Financial Pact addresses some of the most urgent questions of our global order. My comment @handelsblatt@Tagesspiegel (in German): https://t.co/6ONqdIbY1t #
Real reform is possible when leaders take action. Thank you @EmmanuelMacron and @WilliamsRuto for our conversation on public health and climate action to meet people’s needs. We face big challenges, but we can accelerate progress if we work together.
“If the rich countries of the world wanted to demonstrate a seriousness about mitigating the impact of climate change on the poorest communities in the world, one very tangible thing we could do is to massively accelerate our efforts on #malaria,” @PeterASands tells @vchadw.
Vor dem Gipfeltreffen über einen „Neuen Finanzpakt“ Ende Juni in Paris mahnt @AnjaLabu, dass ein neues Verhältnis mit Afrika nur mit einer Reform der Entwicklungsfinanzierung gelingen kann. Mehr dazu auf @ThePioneerDe!

Ein paar Eindrücke von der #MSC2023, an der ich im Rahmen des @MunSecConf Women Parliamentarian Program teilnehmen durfte.
Höhepunkt für mich war die Begegnung mit @BillGates, der uns im Kreis der Kolleginnen aus BT & EP das Engagement der @gatesfoundation erläutert hat. 1/5
Vor einem Jahr habe ich den Männer-Lunch der Wirtschaft auf der MSC fotografiert, heute besetzen die Frauen 50%aller Podien und dominieren Side Events/Diskussionen. Gut so! #msc2023 @MSCheusgen #Zeitenwende
At @MunSecConf, we believe that for dialogue to be effective & relevant, it needs diverse voices.
This is why, with the support of @gatesfoundation, we are now launching the MSC Women Parliamentarians Program (WPP). #MSC2023

Covid19 has created an economic crisis - and that's magnified inequality. Making sure policies work for the lowest paid women could unleash 230 million new jobs.
Women in low-income jobs are bearing the brunt of the economic downturn caused by the pandemic.
Emergency cash transfers designed to reach women are a good way to prevent this crisis from locking these workers and their families into poverty.
"The quickest way to control the pandemic and reopen economies is to start by protecting the highest-risk people, rather than the entire populations of just some countries."
Why COVAX is so important 👇

Ethiopia is the Gavi-supported African country that has so far been most affected by the #COVID19, with an exponential growth in cases. Nonetheless, Ethiopia has managed to maintain health services during the pandemic, including immunisation. Read more: https://t.co/HTLHhvjdqH
Africa's swift and pragmatic response to #COVID19 has saved them from the worst of the pandemic.
We mustn't let their success go to waste. There's clearly a lot we can learn, not just in handling coronavirus, but other future health crises.

Covid has left women and girls profoundly vulnerable. Yet their specific needs continue to go overlooked.
More policies are needed, both short and long term, to protect them during the pandemic and beyond.

We can't fight Covid unless every sector plays its part.
Great to see this level of commitment from the pharmaceutical industry - the success of the ACT Accelerator and #COVAX depends on it.

I spoke to @BBCWorldService about why I am increasingly optimistic about a historic level of solidarity in #COVID19 response through #COVAX: https://t.co/pjS5PK0j0s.
Tony Blair is spot on. By 2050, Sub-Saharan Africa’s population will double to over 2 billion. To support this growth and reach the #SDGs, we need to ensure #Africa has self-sustaining food systems. @InstituteGC
