Civil Society advocacy on non communicable diseases (NCDs) at the #NCDAF2025 in the lead up to the High Level Meeting in September
Civil society for health, working with @WHO to ensure that the work that supports health as a global public good strengthens! The US withdrawal will cost ~$600m per year. Even as the US sidelines itself, the world steps forward. #1Dollar1World
We need @WHO, and right now, WHO needs us. It's rare that ideals and pocketbooks come into alignment, but this is such a moment.
Let's do the right thing - donate now, and show health staff at WHO that they matter! #1Dollar1World #HealthForAll

Africa We Want ... will we see progress at the #UNCivilSociety conference? @ISERUganda @PHMKenya @PSIglobalunion @ActionAid @Oxfam @esrc_hakijamii @social_rights working to improve @UN #PactForTheFuture
And @PHMKenya @ISERUganda @esrc_hakijamii @ActionAidUK @PSIglobalunion and others are together in Nairobi, to correct those omissions in the #PactfortheFuture @UN #SummitoftheFuture
The zero draft of the #PactForTheFuture 📜 underestimates critical #HumanRights such as #Health, #Education, and environmental rights, key to forging just and inclusive societies. As the #SummitOfTheFuture rapidly approaches, these omissions become increasingly evident. 🕊

At the @WHO #CivilSocietyCommission general meeting, @DrTedros asks for public support to conclude the treaty negotiations, highlighting that a pandemic agreement does not grant special powers to WHO – not vaccine mandates, not lockdowns, etc. – that are national government roles
