📢Today, we proudly join @WRA_Global in celebrating 25 years of impactful advocacy! Together with #MNH advocates & national alliances, we’re reflecting on a remarkable journey and envisioning a bold path forward for women’s and newborn health and rights. 🌍💪 #WRAGlobal@25

Dear Global Leaders,

Women are calling for clean water and sanitation. Faster action is essential to preventing infection and sepsis, a leading cause of maternal and newborn deaths.

These are basic rights.

‘In my own country, it has been reported that girls as young as 11 are giving birth. We must take accelerated action to prevent this.’ President @CyrilRamaphosa of #SouthAfrica #GLN #PartnersforChange

[White Ribbon Alliance @WRA_Global]

Strong call from Rasa Izadnegahdar @gatesfoundation for funders to support country plans for tackling maternal mortality. We agree - we need community + county specific context to save women and newborn’s lives - we must listen to women to achieve this. #womenarewatching

[WaterAid @wateraid]

When asked about their top demands for maternal #healthcare, 1.2 million women from 114 countries said water, sanitation and hygiene is their second highest priority.

World leaders at #UNGA must prioritise investment in these essentials to keep women and their babies safe.

[White Ribbon Alliance @WRA_Global]

It is critical that global leaders prioritise the rights of girls, women and newborns - every 7 seconds a pregnant woman or newborn dies - we must build the political will: Join this important event to discuss how this is happening #womenarewatching #gln

Yesterday at the @PMNCH Accountability Breakfast, @angienguku our ED,called for urgent action on #MNH. "The #WhatWomenWant campaign has shown us the way—now #WomenAreWatching—for us to act." Their futures depend on us stepping up with the urgency this moment requires 🌍💪

It’s time to #Act NOW, #TakeAction against child marriage in Nigeria. “Child marriage is not marriage, it is official government sanctioned rape”- @DembyAustin. Nigeria could learn from #SierraLeone ‘s plan to abolish this crime against children.

Chinedu told @WRANigeria that she wants family planning. In 2018, use of modern contraception in Rivers State where she lives was less than 20%. But since WRA has advocated with partners for increased budget, Governor @SimFubaraKSC has increased funding. #AskListenAct #WomenAreWatching

[White Ribbon Alliance @WRA_Global]

“Child marriage is not marriage, it is official government sanctioned rape.” @DembyAustin @MoH_Somalia #SierraLeone ensuring this is outlawed and law is upheld to end this horrific abuse. #accountabilitymatters

[White Ribbon Alliance @WRA_Global]

“For us to talk about maternal mortality we must know about every pregnancy and every pregnant woman must see themselves in the system.” Minister of Health @DembyAustin outlines how PReSTrack is ensuring safe pregnancies #accountabilitymatters

[White Ribbon Alliance Kenya @WRA_K]

"To end preventable maternal, newborn, & child mortality, it takes everyone—governments, private sector, civil society, & health workers—working together. We look forward to hearing about the commitments made to ensure no woman, newborn, & child is left behind." - @HelenClarkN

[White Ribbon Alliance @WRA_Global]

Irene is from Kisumu and demands free sanitary towels so she can go to school during her period. She has joined @WRA_K self-care advocacy to fight for her rights - because menstruation is not a choice.

Thank you to @kitxart for the beautiful artwork.
