Visa follies 2023:
Canada, the US, and France (to name just three) decide who goes to a women’s rights conference in Rwanda by decreeing who is worthy of travelling through their countries to get there.
Or not worthy.
Like, say, our Haitian colleague.

BREAKING: ABC News Host Jonathan Karl just broke it to Senator Marco Rubio that Trump let a Chinese spy balloon fly over the US 3 times.

I could watch his face on repeat 1,000 times as he hears this from Karl!

Nelson Mandela is an inspiration in doing our part to champion change. As we address present global challenges, we need to imbibe his drive for action and transformative change.

“It always seems impossible until it’s done”

Change starts from every one of us. #MandelaDay2020

[Onome Ako @onomeako]

Today we celebrate #MandelaDay2020! We honour him and reflect on his legacy as we fight for differences in our communities. In our commitment to increasing sustainable health care access, we all at @AmrefCanada work to uphold his values.

How will you commit to change today? 🌍

On this #DAC2020, it’s our civic duty to protect children from harmful cultural practices like #FGMC and Child Marriage by amplifying their voice. Children deserve to be heard #Endchildmarriages #EndFGMC #KootaInjena @USAID #NoMoreViolence
