Omar Artan didn’t just make the #FIFAWorldCup, he made history as the first Somali referee to get there, and as #Africa’s best. That milestone stands no matter what. So sorry to see this, Omar. You reached the summit of your profession and inspired a generation back home just by getting there, and being kept off the pitch you earned doesn’t change that. This won’t be the end of your story on the world stage. The world stands with you as one family, wishing you resilience now and many more major finals to come. Solidarity. #Somalia

On behalf of WHO Workers, I was privileged to wish Happy 100th birthday to Mrs Carnelley who served between 1949 and 1980, on #WorldHealthDay and #WHO75. I was inspired by Gwen's gracious smile & simplicity. Her sense of humor, joking on @DrTedros' notes.
Once WHO, always WHO!
I’m so sorry to hear this, my brother @laktarr001. @WHO and @WorldHealthSmt are very concerned and we hope that the situation clears up quickly. Your voice and expertise, and that of the @AfricaCDC, are of the utmost importance to the #WHS2022

On World Mental Health, i can humbly report that I have been blessed to receive the support of a psychologist and psychotherapist for the past 10 months.
Mental Health is no longer a quote, it is not a tabou, it is a reality.

I heard Madiba is throwing a party in heaven for his birthday to which John was invited. One had to be at least 80 to be on the guests list. May your soul find eternal peace.
I feel priveleged (& i'm sure my colleagues of the #GSTASKFORCE feel the same) to have shared this working dinner with you last night @DrTedros.It was a rich discussion where you demonstrated again how much @WHO staff issues matter to you. On behalf of all General Service Asante!
Meeting today, the General Service Taskforce (GForce)of @WHO HQ discussed our proposals with Director HRD. We are not just thrilled to know that senior management is open to dialogue, but also grateful that @DrTedros team shares the vision of WHO that draws on its full workforce
Dr. King was 26 when the Montgomery bus boycott began. He started small, rallying others who believed their efforts mattered, pressing on through challenges and doubts to change our world for the better. A permanent inspiration for the rest of us to keep pushing towards justice.
