It’s inspiring to see so much passion these days for dealing with climate change, and to know that the world has set some ambitious goals for solving it. What we need now are practical plans to reach those goals.

India’s research and manufacturing capacity are critical for fighting COVID-19. Thank you @narendramodi for speaking at today’s Grand Challenges meeting. @PMOIndia https://t.co/ZMmIL0xxWi

Europe has an opportunity to get its economy back on track in a way that creates good jobs and reinforces its global climate leadership. Here are 55 ideas on how Europe can develop and scale up the innovative technologies we'll need to reach net-zero. https://t.co/uhcKCvjYeX

The COVID-19 pandemic has set back efforts to end poverty, hunger, and malnutrition. Investing in @CGIAR will speed the recovery by helping farmers adapt to climate change and rebuild food systems after the pandemic (via @Nature). https://t.co/8zR2SVORiC

.@StephenCurry30’s work in the community is as inspiring as his amazing record on the basketball court. I really appreciated the thoughtful conversation. https://t.co/dpDh3WHR3W

Dr. Tunji Funsho’s work with @Rotary was essential in stopping wild polio in Africa and will help create a polio-free world for all. A well-deserved recognition. https://t.co/CT1muyPyS3

This honor is well deserved. COVID-19 is not just a health crisis—it is also now a food crisis, and @WFP is there to respond. I’m inspired by the thousands of people in the organization who have committed their lives to fighting hunger. https://t.co/WC5bAFO5FH

For the last 25 years, Dr. Firdausi Qadri, an immunologist and infectious disease researcher in Bangladesh, has been working to protect entire communities from cholera epidemics. https://t.co/F2pQiIYqry

I’m excited to see this kind of innovation. Detecting and predicting outbreaks earlier is critical to preventing epidemics. https://t.co/ZadPiUS73z

Understanding this concept can help us measure our progress toward eliminating carbon emissions and serve as a guide to action. https://t.co/xA0rjh8xBk

Developing and manufacturing vaccines won’t end the pandemic quickly unless we also deliver them equitably. Here is why it’s critical that vaccines are distributed in proportion to the global population: https://t.co/XFTYVZ2C2N https://t.co/ZL0ulACxdM

Great to see the UK commit vital funding to ensure COVID-19 vaccines are available for the world’s poorest people. PM @BorisJohnson's plan will improve the way we prepare for future crises like this. https://t.co/SMzVlVpEyQ

After 20 years of stunning advances toward global goals to improve health and reduce poverty, the COVID-19 pandemic stopped progress in its tracks. In our foundation’s Goalkeepers report, we survey the damage and discuss how to start reversing it. https://t.co/5e41bGrlUp

To prevent the worst effects of climate change, we need innovation across all sectors—especially in the hardest to decarbonize sectors—to get us on a viable path to net-zero emissions. https://t.co/ogHltYKF9D

Dr. John Nkengasong is a true Goalkeeper. His leadership will help ensure Africa has the tools it needs to fight COVID-19: https://t.co/E0gxmT6ahF https://t.co/tOs2Ef0Euf

What do COVID-19 and malaria have to do with each other? When COVID-19 struck, it disrupted the entire global health care system—including the fight against malaria. https://t.co/kpirEreOeo

Thanks to the commitment of leaders from all 47 countries in the @WHOAFRO Region, history was made today: the entire African region was certified wild poliovirus-free! 🎉 An important step on the path to #EndPolio everywhere 🌍. https://t.co/Je7nZaAE9c

Some countries responded successfully to the pandemic – and more broadly, some are much more successful in protecting their population’s health. We contributed to @exemplarshealth, a new publication to learn from the most successful countries in the world https://t.co/qwXG7lMhgN

6 months ago, Africa confirmed its first case of #COVID19. Since then, there have been 1 million cases, affecting every country on the continent. From nurses to virologists, meet some of the health heroes leading Africa's pandemic response: https://t.co/vEzXwkXbPf via @WHOAFRO https://t.co/34nEZvU5em

A safe and effective #COVID19 vaccine is the way out of this devastating pandemic🌍 Our Director of Vaccine R&D, Melanie Saville, speaks to @bbcworldservice on the progress in vaccine development and the challenges to overcome 🎧🔽 https://t.co/r8negZqWhl

Vaccines prevent millions of deaths every year by harnessing the body’s immune system to create defences against future infection. But how exactly do #VaccinesWork? Read our latest explainer: https://t.co/4wrKVmgwCN

As a community health worker in Kenya’s Homa Bay County, Evaline has helped her community dramatically reduce the number of people who die from malaria. And when #COVID19 arrived, she enlisted to fight the new enemy. #UniteToFight https://t.co/4PRNUBLrjh

This commitment is critical. “Additional manufacturing capacity to begin producing doses for every country, not just the wealthy few.” - @GaviSeth https://t.co/i2IT4cVUAC

In our recent webinar, @doctorsoumya called for community-led responses to #coronavirus. These types of engagements have been successful in areas across Africa after years of fostering relationships with #HealthWorkers through the #HIV epidemic.

Last month, over 1 billion students were affected by #COVID19 school closures. Even before the pandemic, the world was facing a learning crisis. We must take bold steps now, to create inclusive, resilient, quality education systems fit for the future. https://t.co/fD4nwEkqUg https://t.co/71ksZO2DHP

The @WorldBank’s support of @CEPIvaccines and @gavi is instrumental to the research and development of the #COVID19 vaccine. https://t.co/F7ZUG2MCaW

"We all have an obligation, a mission, and a mandate to do what we can. We must speak up for those who have been left out and left behind. We cannot afford to be silent." https://t.co/wMY1WRGHWU

Three lessons that have been central to the #COVID19 response in South Africa, Liberia, & other countries: 🔸 Screening, tracing, & social distancing work 🔸 Experience with other outbreaks has been key 🔸 Nations don’t have to be wealthy to stay healthy https://t.co/KGCd7NxgBA

Not many of us get to live to see our own legacy play out in such a meaningful, remarkable way. John Lewis did: https://t.co/KbVfYt5CeQ

Decision-makers can take steps right now to make sure the world recovers from this pandemic stronger, more prepared & more equal than it was before. The key: Women and girls must be at the center of the response. Read more in my piece in @ForeignAffairs. https://t.co/dok9ku3h2k
