🥳 Grateful for the opportunity to have contributed to an important conversation around #globaldev. When you read the book, I hope you find that what we need to do better, why it's important to do better & how we go about doing better are all touched upon in very meaningful ways.

I'm at UTH right now, now tell me whyblood bank says thr is no blood for emergency transfusion for a cancer pt with Hb 2, but they are saying units can be found if we pay. The cartel starts from cleaners to lab personnel to whoever is in charge at the blood bank. Shameful really

A former gardener just called to ask if I can help him get a passport. Why? Apparently, an Indian national has promised him and 2 friends gardening jobs in Russia. Long story short, we had an info session on human trafficking for forced labour, debt bondage and all that jazz.

Women without children. Women without husbands. Women with one child. Women with only female children. Women with. Women without. Women.
People are so nasty towards women without children.

I really hope women never stop talking about their health experiences, from reproductive health and pregnancy to fibroids and ovarian cysts etc. There’s still so much we don’t know, and too many women are left navigating these experiences in silence and confusion.

That's the thing about marriage hey... some have fairy tales and others have cautionary tales. It is what it is.
So happy to see married couples at events drinking and partying together.

Hello lovely people. I have taken up the task of helping UTH’s neonatal intensive care unit with their fundraiser. They’re trying to raise money to get equipment. If you or your organisation are interested, please reach out to me. And please retweet this for me ❤️

the person you marry might one day have to help you shower, feed you when you’re weak, or comfort you when you’ve lost someone you love. please understand the weight of that choice.

every moral panic about women “abandoning the home” is also a panic about who will do the labor if women stop doing it for free.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT!!!! Zambia recorded 10,881 GBV cases between April and June 2026. That’s 711 more than the same period in 2025, a 7% rise. These are not just number, these are people. #EndGBV

Looks like @diamondtvzambia caved and deleted that piece. While it is a relief that it was taken down, the fact that it was published in the first place, and that it passed through whatever minimal editorial oversight exists over there, says a lot about them as a media house.
This is a vile, degrading and offensive piece of writing! This is journalism? Masquerading as what, 'entertainment'? Nonsense. What a massive disservice to public discourse! Great job promoting harmful, misogynistic attitudes that pathologise and demean women & girls, Catherine. teapaw.org/diamondtvzambia/status…

If your best behavior is not reserved for your spouse, you need to reevaluate your priorities. The person who shares your life should not receive the worst of you while strangers get your charm, patience, attention, and respect.

A lifetime of breaking barriers. A legacy of fighting for justice. Congratulations to Navi Pillay on being awarded the 2026 #NobelPeacePrize! 🕊️ Her recognition is a reminder that progress takes courage, persistence and people who refuse to give up. #ForAllWomenAndGirls
