Loosing trust in our ability to deal with death
#trust is what allows us to live well, it underpins flourishing relationships, #trust holds the past & the future together, it allows us to say goodbye - to see death and live knowing this is the path we all must tred #valueofdeath – at Edinburgh, Scotland
The #ValueofDeath has been largely lost, obscuring societies' understanding of health, life, & nature.
@lizgrant360 & @farzanakhan04 reflect on findings & recommendations from new Lancet Commission: hubs.li/Q013k-yZ0
ALT In so many societies we have lost trust in, and relegated, our ability to deal with death.

This is a devastating assessment. We need a new international covenant for #UHC and #GlobalHealth
3⃣ Tackling challenges facing #HealthForAll & health systems [4]
The #COVID19 pandemic is likely to halt 2 decades of global progress towards universal health coverage, having triggered the worst economic crisis since the 30s and badly disrupted health services

Acting on #palliativecare in #climatechange is a #humanitarian imperative and #Compassion underlies this response @PallCHASE @IAHPC @whpca @GlobalCare @palliumindia
'We have 2 lives and the second starts when we realise we only have one left' @vinodmenon @mrraj47 @lizgrant360 @PallChase @CairdeasIPCT we need explicit and facilitated compassionate responses #cop26 #WorldHospiceAndPalliativeCareDay join for our second webinar today
How can no one be left behind in the quest to relieve serious health-related suffering in humanitarian crisis, when 83% of global population has next-to-no access to #palliativecare? Thanks from @palliumindia Liz Grant, for exploring a way forward.@drmhoira
"Just as ‘it takes a village to raise a child’, it takes a community of public and professionals to provide care and support for people who are living with serious illness, dying and bereavement."
Thanks to @MareeToddMSP for joining today's launch.

Refugees believe in giving and compassion not abandonment- @DrWaheedArian
refugees are our brothers and sisters, there is no other way to respond than with compassion and openness.
Not to do so is not just an act of abandonment of others but abandonment of our very humanity – at Edinburgh, Scotland

only 1% of people in low-income countries have received at least one dose.
Urgent need to support vaccine sharing alongside investment in vaccine manufacturing capability

'When we welcome the stranger we welcome God himself' and may 'entertain angels' Powerful reminder of our #onehumanity and the role of #faithinaction @PallChase @CairdeasIPCT @IAHPC @medicalteams @rachelcogs @PallCareERC
Powerful video flagging faith actors's working together to welcome refugees and displaced people @Refugees #TogetherforAction #faithmatters
I spoke to our friend Dr Khamis as rockets rained down, talked of the death of a dear colleague who was the head of internal medicine along with his family as residential areas bombed, spoke of the death of each person as unaceptable. Make it stop.
Dr Mohammed, my friend in this writing, has just sent a message as he lies in the Gazan night: “Even nightmares have an end. What is happening in Gaza is never ending. I am scared of falling asleep”. He wants the world to know he is not ok. Make it stop. #FreePalestine

Jews in Australia are standing in solidarity with Palestine!
"We are Jews living in Australia, on Aboriginal land, and we are angered beyond words by what Israel is currently doing to Palestine and to Palestinians."

without empathy there is no solidarity, without solidarity there is no equity, - and without equity there is no shared safe future for any of us. @PeterASinger @BeingCompassion @CHGlobalHealth @BinghamCentre @LordNigelCrisp
#VaccineEquity
Interesting point about empathy. Without empathy, there is no solidarity. Without solidarity there is no equity. #VaccinEquity
