We’re investing $2.5B through 2030 to help transform women’s health.
Over the past 25 years, the world has made real progress in helping women live healthier lives, but there’s still a long way to go. Women are underrepresented in research and excluded from the innovation process—and it stands in the way of progress for everyone. This investment is aiming to change that. https://t.co/J0cIEpIL8j

Nigeria just charged me $215 for a 1-month, single entry visa. For the 3rd time this year.
The visa is $25 but Nigeria charges a $20 "processing fee" & $170 for biometrics every time.
How can we achieve a borderless Africa - or AfCFTA - when visas are this hard?
