Delighted to mark International #YouthDay with members of the @WHOYouthCouncil in a dynamic discussion on solutions to advance global health.

The creativity, passion, and commitment shown by these young leaders was truly inspiring. I encouraged them to keep broadening their skills, lead with patience and composure, and continue challenging assumptions by asking “why” as they work to improve health and wellbeing around the world.
