🌟 You have the power to create the change you wish to see in your #communities and the global health space.

🌟 Together, we can build a world where solidarity triumphs over division.

A special thanks to our amazing speakers, Prof. @atuire from the Global Health Solidarity Project and Prof. Jr. Cecilia M. Bailliet, @UNHumanRights Independent Expert on International Solidarity, for sharing their wisdom and insights.

At the Global Health Solidarity Project, we honour and stand with #women everywhere who are championing #innovation and #equality.

[Global Health Solidarity Network @officialghsn]

Why is understanding global health solidarity so important?🤔

Understanding global health solidarity is essential because it has historically driven meaningful social and global change.

However, current definitions are often vague, overly broad, and lack clear guidance for action. There are also significant differences in how solidarity is understood, particularly between actors in the Global North and others, which affects its implementation.

In simple terms, global health solidarity is the driving force that ensures the long-term effectiveness of global health strategies in diverse communities worldwide. It promotes equitable healthcare, strengthens resilience, and promotes well-being for all.

🗓️ Join our speakers on Tuesday February 18, 2025, for an in-depth discussion on how global health actors and influencers are practicing and navigating solidarity across the globe.

There are often calls for solidarity during global health emergencies, but we lack the necessary tools to measure how or if this solidarity is being enacted.

That's what Dr Caesar Atuire's (@atuire) Discovery Award research is trying to address ⤵️
