Women account for 67% of the health and care workforce and yet they are still paid 24% less on average than men working in the sector: https://t.co/1xbcli6wQU

This needs to end. #EqualPayDay

Grateful to the @WHO for amplifying this critical work!

When working towards #genderequality & achieving a fair share of health and care, we think @MLMcIsaac said it best: "We need to integrate all forms of health and care work into our data, dialogue, and decision making."

What are the gender value gaps and how do they tie into health and care work? A 🧵 about the key findings from the @WHO report, Fair Share for Health and Care, that launched at #CSW68 last week 👇

[United Health Futures @UHF_group]

Today, we honor the incredible achievements of women around the world. On this #internationalwomensday, we also take a moment to reflect on the progress made towards gender equality and recognize the work that still lies ahead. #iwd2024

Why have fossil fuel fiscal reforms been neglected on the political agenda despite robust evidence? Could paying attention to the health perspective while simultaneously promoting the economic case for ending fossil fuel subsidies be a more effective approach? #FossilFuels

Colorado Republicans cannot stop the Democrats from passing a bill codifying the right to abortion in state law. But they can sure stretch it out. https://t.co/UPnQY5e0za
