"We stay in this work when things get really difficult. The way we go on is to continue doing that work and to continue to be aspirational, to raise the bar around standards and to continue to really really push the limits of what's possible." @pih https://t.co/C26y791JUu

Tonight is such an emotional moment for both @PiH and #UGHE Community as we commemorate and reflect on a vibrant selfless life of our beloved Paul that impacted us as individuals and as a community. Our commitment is to continue what he lived for, “health equity”.

Today, on what would have been his 63rd birthday, I am missing my wonderful friend & mentor Paul Farmer. His work on global health equity remains vital. Paul also gave great hugs (even when I was very pregnant). Holding all who loved him extra tight in my heart.
