Great to be at #WHS2024 for @WaterAidUK to highlight importance of investing in water, sanitation & hygiene to address risk of #AMR - Thank you to EC, gov of Sweden & gov of Germany in sharing importance of WASH for tackling infection.
Come by the @WaterAidUK stand at #LabourConference2024 & try our hand to beat the buzzer! Time is running out to achieve SDG6! Can you do better than @lisanandy ?

“To rebuild trust in the UK the government needs to show up at key global moments and reprioritise UK aid so we no longer turn up, empty handed. The UK’s lack of presence and pledges is noticed on the world stage” @romilly_bond @IPPR #LabConf24

Are you as shocked as Lib Dem leader @EdwardJDavey was to find out that over 700 million people STILL live without clean water? 🤯
It's a basic human right!

At the last election women were 42% more likely than men to be turned away due to voter ID rules, according to @DVUKObservers. This is worrying. #SheVotes24. @CentenaryAction @fawcettsociety @ElectHer_UK @5050Parliament

More than 13,000 women will give birth in the next month in #Gaza (UN).
We spoke to @KaamilAhmed for a @guardian article covering the constant trauma of pregnant women & new mothers, including Yasmeen who gave birth to premature triplets during the war.

Good to see development agenda and priorities being communicated. Critical to see the momentum built up to make progress isn’t lost!
Concerning that is appears as if development is being deprioritised as a sub level of foreign policy and equalities instead of a core priority for driving progress on both these areas!
