Thank you @NCWIndia and @sharmarekha for standing with us.
It is so heartening to have such a strong ally as we design solutions for #vulnerable women in these #difficult times. This gives us the confidence to keep working for #change.

Women’s panel - the NCW ignored Manipur sexual violence complaint for over a month. Yes, one whole month according to this India Today report. What is the point of the NCW, someone please enlighten us ⁦@NCWIndia⁩ ⁦@sharmarekha⁩ https://t.co/NTDBVHkebl

@AjwadShaikh3 @zicofern @citizenmatters @ChatterjeeBadri please note. Wasn't @mybmc taking steps to protect these trees?

[Meru Vashisht @MeruVashisht]

Manipur is burning - amidst mob violence and killings. Its people are seeking President's rule. There is limited media coverage but enough to know the urgency of the situation. We can help amplify their ask.

[Self-Care Trailblazer Group @SelfCare4UHC]

People make decisions based on what little they can see — and in fear of what they can’t. What if we could peek inside and respond to the needs of our bodies? @MeruVashisht writes a piece on how "fear of the invisible" is driving innovation in #SelfCare: https://t.co/yzYwcsdVDJ

@MinistryWCD @dcgodda @F_Ansari_Godda @nishikant_dubey @GoddaNsui please look into it and update. The Anganwadi Sevika is a hard-working intelligent woman serving the area for more than a decade. She deserves better.

[Meru Vashisht @MeruVashisht]

The flooring of the Anganwadi Centre in Khaspathar Village of Mahgawan Block, Godda District has been like this since 2016. There is no water facility and the toilet doesn't have a functioning drain.

[Meru Vashisht @MeruVashisht]

Anganwadi Centres are the last mile facilities of maternal and child well being in our country. Children spend time at these facilities between the age of 3-6. Where do they sit, how do they wash their hands and where do the defecate?

Throwback to last week at @ICFP2022 with @rebeccaannbraun, ETR's Manager of the @YTHorg initiative, and @MeruVashisht, last year's #YTHLive Comprehensive #SexEd Innovation Challenge winner! This is the power of global connection 🌍

[Richa Chadha @richachadha07]

.@passportsevamea it’s not appreciative and unjustified to make a single mother run around to your office for 4 times in a month. Your department lack system update which gives the option to know the details.@DrSJaishankar @CPVIndia @rpodelhi @SecretaryCPVOIA @achangsan

[DASTAK Foundation @DastakPakistan]

We have had lots of input from workshops and interviews with persons with disabilities. The consensus so far highlights the importance of being expected, accepted, and connected to achieve inclusive health systems.

Here’s a thing that World Number One and freshly crowned French Open Champion Iga Swiatek was asked in her press conference today. Presenting without comment because there are no words.

[Meru Vashisht @MeruVashisht]

We at @tinkerlabs are partnering with the @_missingbillion to reimagine health systems to be inclusive of persons with disabilities. If you missed participating in our human centred design research, add your inputs to our vision now!
