Calling all global health supporters to share this initiative out by our staff member. Global health shouldn't be hostage to politics, it's time to be united in the face of adversity. #1Dollar1World #HealthForAll

#Parents hold your government accountable!
The latest @WHO data show that #children are using #ecigarettes at rates higher than adults in many countries and globally an estimated 37 million youth aged 13–15 years use #tobacco. https://t.co/JXcrC4pQ3s

Protecting our children from Vaping and e cigarettes is the epidemic of our generation... work with your local representatives and schools to take a stand. https://t.co/MTRryqgofv

Nicotine is highly addictive and has damaging effects on the brains of young people. #CommitToQuit all forms of tobacco and e-cigarette use!

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

Excellent report from @WHO calling for urgent gender-equitable investments across the health and care work- to close the gender gap in care, participation, earning and working conditions. Share widely... an essential read!

A critical @WHO_Europe post highlighting the mental health burden of being a responder in the Israel Palestine conflict.

[WHO/Europe @WHO_Europe]

#MentalHealth is often a casualty of conflict – the crisis in Israel & occupied Palestinian territory is no exception. Frontline health workers in IL share how they are trying to cope w/ the conflict’s #psychological impact, beginning with Oct. 7 attacks. https://t.co/rKeIhlZTBm

Singing

Throughout humankind, arts have had a positive influence on physical and #MentalHealth.

At #WHA76, @ReneeFleming, WHO Goodwill Ambassador for Arts and Health, explains why this connection is not new.

The global health workforce crisis is a #genderinequality crisis. We can not prosper if we leave 50% of the human population behind! #WHA76

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

South East Asian countries have achieved 30% increase in health workforce since 2014. @WHOSEARO #healthworkforce #SDGs

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

Domestic financing is the only sustainable solution to the health workforce crisis. Philanthropy needs to align with government to support long term Investment @DrSenait #WHA76

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

Intentional investment, proper management, equal pay for equal work, stronger health infrastructure, better education for women who make up 70% of the healthcare workforce, safe working environments - key takeaways from #WHA76 on sustaining an adequate health workforce #SDGs

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

Fact- Seventy per cent (70%) of the health and social workforce are women and investing in the health workforce is an opportunity to create decent employment opportunities, in particular for women and youth. #healthcareworkers #SDG https://t.co/LbPROzkGv8

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

To meet healthcare workforce goals attractive salaries must be paid and the profession of health care valued at par to other skilled work! The #Bucharestdeclaration misses this critical issue. Strikes after Covid pandemic are testimony to the issue!

[Sameera Suri @sameera_suri]

@wha76 addresses the 10 million shortage of health-workers anticipated by 2030 needed to meet the demand for care. Essential to achieving the #SDG and #healthsecurity

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

A warm welcome to the new members of my senior leadership team: @JeremyFarrar, @DrLiAilan, Yukiko Nakatani, Razia Pendse, Jérôme Salomon.

Looking forward to working together to promote health, keep the 🌍 safe, serve the vulnerable.
