[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

There are few gatherings like the World Health Assembly.

And why are we here? For the same reason the nations of the world established WHO 76 years ago: to work together towards our shared goal of #HealthForAll.

The solution is in your hands. #WHA77

[Tatiana Valovaya, Director-General of UN Geneva @UN_Valovaya]

Period poverty, or the inability to afford menstrual products, is a serious issue especially in developing countries. Today, on #MenstrualHygieneDay we stand together for a #PeriodFriendlyWorld. Every woman & girl deserves a safe and dignified menstrual hygiene. #MHDay2024

[UN-Habitat @UNHABITAT]

More roads = more traffic. This is known as "Induced Demand" (Duranton & Turner (2011)).

Studies have shown that expanding road capacity often results in a proportional increase in traffic volume, negating the initial benefits.

[United Nations @UN]

Menstrual health is a human right.

Yet, millions lack access to menstrual products and adequate facilities.

On Tuesday's #MenstrualHygieneDay & every day, @UNFPA works to improve menstrual health, ensuring dignity for all. https://t.co/ZcNBKr8sPW

[UN-Habitat @UNHABITAT]

Think cities can't breathe?

Urban forestry is our unsung hero, turning grey to green, slashing stress, cleaning air and water AND fighting off urban heat like an eco-shield.

Let's champion our leafy warriors and transform our concrete jungles.

[United Nations @UN]
