Thank you to @EuroHealthNet and the International Youth Health Organization @YHOint for the good exchange.
We agreed there is a need to find new ways to invest in prevention and to better involve young people in shaping public health policies.
Public health requires a coordinated response on the national and international level. 🗺
WHO Collaborating Centres highlighted their support for @who in the new @TheLancet open letter. Why? Because we are stronger together. 🤝

Why is #youth following the #INBnegotiations on the #PandemicAccord closely? 🦠
Because 👏our👏 future👏 is 👏on👏 the👏 line!
🌍 Global health must include youth perspectives - from prevention to preparedness.
How will the world deal with future pandemics? Let's see 👀
🌍💡 The world’s tired of winging it! …and we, the #youth, are ready for a better plan. After all, pandemics don’t come with an instruction manual... but @WHO#PandemicAccord is here to change that! 🚀
#INBnegotiations finish line is close – let's make it happen! 🌟
One fruitful #youth4health consultation on #EPW2 later:
Excited to see the European Programme of Work 2025-30 start to take shape with #socialparticipation and #youthengagement at its core! Still, we have a long way and many future hearings to go... 📝💡
At the first in-person Global Model WHO, youth delegates urge swift action on pandemic prevention, preparedness and response, and urged Member States to successfully conclude their negotiations on a global pandemic agreement.
Global Model WHO is a realistic simulation of the World Health Assembly, the world’s peak health decision making body.
Over 350 youth delegates from 52 countries worked collaboratively to draft resolutions addressing topics incl. climate change, pollution and health, mental health, antimicrobial resistance, the Global Health and Peace Initiative, tuberculosis control, and polio eradication https://t.co/m9zMMbTZWR
Of all the many kind and wonderful wishes that are coming my way today, this is extra special!
Thank you to all who constitute our #Youth4Health network across the @WHO_Europe Region!
I pledge to elevate the role of young persons in health dialogue and policymaking all the more during my second term as WHO/Europe Regional Director!
We've come a long way since we established our coalition two years ago - and your robust and vocal presence at this week's 74th Regional Committee for Europe proves that!
Your heartfelt support means so much to me - and to all of us who work with you!
🙏🙏🙏

This is so moving!
One of my proudest achievements during my first term as @WHO_Europe Regional Director has been to create the #Youth4Health network - aimed at ensuring young people have a genuine say in health policymaking!
We were so pleased to host several youth delegates at our 74th Regional Committee for Europe in Copenhagen this week - and to hear them articulate so clearly the health priorities for youth across Europe and Central Asia!
From strength to strength!

A heartfelt thank you to @WHO_Europe and @hans_kluge for inviting me to deliver opening remarks at #RC74CPH on behalf of #Youth4Health

Non-Party delegates (the ones that are not paid by the FF industry) are utilizing some of the only still available spaces and platforms to change the course of negotiations at #Cop28
Extremely proud to be a part of the community that does NOT give up!

📢UN climate talks must align with science!
If they can't, then here is an alternative way for COP to conclude
