Frontline health workers - most of whom are women - should be recognized and celebrated for the critical work they do. Wonderful effort by @RoopaDhatt and her team. 👏🏽👏🏽 #WD2023

[Women In Global Health @womeninGH]

Congratulations to the 2023 #HeroinesofHealth! ✨
📣Global leaders, let's respond to their call to action in supporting women health workers.
They know their communities best and can provide crucial #SRH services while enabling women to realize their right to health.

Everyone in America must have equitable access to safe, high-quality reproductive medical care. This includes abortion, an essential element of comprehensive healthcare.

We must protect #AbortionRights and #ReproductiveFreedom at all costs. https://t.co/TDxiX66jkA

Cities from Los Angeles to Freetown are advancing health by rooting out gender inequities. @ShumaPanse shares how @CitiesChange is encouraging more cities to do the same. https://t.co/MEPsm8BURm

[Shuma Panse @ShumaPanse]

@bromagerin @RWJF @CitiesChange And thx to you for your leadership and advancing this important work!

[Shuma Panse @ShumaPanse]

Health equity and gender equity go hand in hand. See what we’re learning from places like Rwanda, Tunisia, and Spain about bridging gender gaps to improve health and well-being. https://t.co/qgA2FTXQl1. #IWD2022 #GenderEquity

[Shuma Panse @ShumaPanse]

Curious to learn how places in the U.S. and abroad are advancing gender equity?

As a first-generation immigrant to the U.S. with close connections to her family’s country of origin, @ShumaPanse was skeptical the #BlueMarbleQuiz would capture her own life experiences and the value of global learning. She was pleasantly surprised.🌍 https://t.co/BeL3Ph58cE

[Shuma Panse @ShumaPanse]

“It’s not just that Costa Rica has surpassed America’s life expectancy while spending less on health care as a percentage of income; it actually spends less than the world average.” Great piece of #globallearning from @Atul_Gawande

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

My newest investigation -- on how Costa Rica's commitment to public health has given its people a life expectancy among the longest in all of the Americas. https://t.co/zXysgt7vWS

[Shuma Panse @ShumaPanse]

12 simple questions got me thinking about my ties to India, the many ways we can learn from other countries, and the value this brings for advancing health equity in the U.S.
