One year ago the world gathered for the single-largest day of financial, policy & program commitments to gender equality at the Generation Equality Forum hosted by @UN_Women. Look back as @MelindaGates shares her thoughts on the impact the Forum will have. https://t.co/poQsWGvqcJ

The Global Findex is an indispensable tool for policymakers, researchers, and the development community. The findings from #GlobalFindex show us where we’ve made tremendous progress in financial inclusion—and where we need to make more. https://t.co/YfoJrpnf2B

“The #GlobalFindex report shows, surprisingly, that financial inclusion increased all over the world even despite COVID-19.” What’s more, in many countries such as Bangladesh, the financial gender gap has narrowed with the help of digital wages. https://t.co/9HDahteuht

People in rural areas are among the most vulnerable when it comes to being impacted by the effects of climate change. Global climate justice would help create a more resilient and equitable one for all. https://t.co/GSJnOcJQsx

Here are 3 ways to ensure more equitable solutions in the fight against malaria, according to @MaEllenSirleaf: 💵Replenish the @GlobalFund to save millions of lives 😷Support community health workers ♀️Gender-specific data #KigaliSummit https://t.co/csh1rnsB7z

Throughout the pandemic many preventable viruses have begun behaving in new ways, causing more concerns for both global health experts and the public. Funding to ensure health care is more accessible will help ease the global health burden. https://t.co/uF8b4olYjN

ICYMI: @melindagates joined @Africa_com, @ChimamandaReal, @Shivonbk1, @ckarema, and @kachambwa to discuss the importance of equity and innovation for Africa's recovery. https://t.co/D1b9K8RYQT

#NTDs threaten the health of ½ the world’s population, but we have the tools to change this. Thanks to a dedicated group of partners – and the donation of over 14 billion treatments – we’re ensuring that NTDs are #NeglectedNoMore. https://t.co/DcAaFMVgbw

The #KigaliSummit brings together global partners dedicated to supporting country programs & building stronger, more equitable health systems—At @gatesfoundation we are stepping up our efforts to #EndMalaria & #BeatNTDs through investments & partnerships. https://t.co/BIwhhMLzOO

Daniel Boakye of @TheENDFund has been working to eliminate river blindness & other neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) for 45 years. Today, global support is urgently needed. “Otherwise, 45 years from now we may find ourselves back where we started.” https://t.co/TPAFiWOBuJ

Don’t miss this important conversation between @ChimamandaReal and @melindagates—happening tomorrow, June 23. https://t.co/wvv92Sxfqn

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of global collaboration. Public-private partnerships can help close the global vaccine gap by improving access for those in low-income countries. https://t.co/bMwcXOuXBn

Gender equality is about more than ensuring women have access to the same opportunities as men. It is about tackling all the conditions—from poverty to climate change—that disproportionately create precarity for women in the first place.

The world has seen the failures of the global health system laid bare during COVID-19, but if we learn from these mistakes, we can help protect families from future pandemics. An important piece from @UNICEF and @GAVI: https://t.co/iZ21lIzhPJ

Since the beginning of the pandemic, millions of working women around the world have left the workforce due to a lack of child care. Investing in programs that help ease that burden is investing in gender equity and the economy.

For the first time since the #GlobalFindex was started in 2011, the #gendergap in account ownership has narrowed. The gap narrowed from 7 to 4 percentage points globally and from 9 to 6 percentage points in developing countries, since 2017. Learn more: https://t.co/ig72wMKgSd https://t.co/6ayGkmC7i2

Every woman should have the right to decide whether & when to have children. @GatesFoundation is committed to achieving a gender-equal world & confronting health inequities. Ensuring women & girls have autonomy over their health, bodies & futures is fundamental to achieving this https://t.co/X7tdiQ1a3d

15 years after we called for the eradication of malaria, the @GatesFoundation is stepping up our commitment by pledging $140 million over four years to support African institutions fighting malaria at today’s #KigaliSummit @CHOGM2022.

The UK’s detection of poliovirus in the environment is a strong reminder that until we #EndPolio everywhere, all countries are at risk. Thankfully, no children have been paralyzed in the UK. Now is the time for a renewed effort to end polio for good. https://t.co/Tovn74i5Fq

https://t.co/p2DkutEKQe invites you for a virtual discussion, "Equality and Innovation for Africa's recovery", featuring Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Melinda French Gates. Join us on 23rd June.

I’m excited to be in India where today I visited @aiims_newdelhi to discuss how the Government & the country’s healthcare workforce have led on the COVID response, & how India’s R&D capabilities offer huge potential to develop robust and impactful healthcare solutions

Embracing and valuing diversity of perspective, life experience, and identity makes our communities stronger. Happy #PrideMonth to all those celebrating! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Peace and support to any who are not able to celebrate openly. 🫶

I’m horrified by yesterday’s massacre in Buffalo and the racist and anti-Semitic sentiment that has driven it. These killings come days after shootings at Asian American businesses in Dallas that police are also investigating as hate crimes.

It was an honor to speak (virtually) at the #GlobalCOVIDSummit today about the urgent action needed to end this pandemic and prevent the next. I'm grateful for the leadership from the US, Belize, Germany, Indonesia and Senegal. https://t.co/18CywpaFjU

Many thanks to the @GatesFoundation & @lpiparis_ for allowing us to co-host a policy conversation on #pandemic preparedness & response with @BillGates & key specialists: ✅@ProfessorSow | @CVDMali ✅@IlonaKickbusch | @GHC_IHEID ✅@SCBriand | @WHO ✅@SpringGombe | @MarketAccessAF

Happy #IDM2022 🎉 The results are in! What do #midwives want in order to continue their life-enhancing work? We and @WRAglobal conducted the “Midwives’ Voices Midwives’ Demands” survey to find out. See the results #ICM100 👇 https://t.co/vekZIXdZnq https://t.co/nFlOh7mSlF

“German development assistance delivers results – and it’s more critical now than ever. Germany’s continued support for the @GlobalFund will be critical to improving health outcomes in low-income communities, especially for #women and girls.” - @melindagates https://t.co/XNGqD233fg

Our commitments to gender equality & health equity are core to our foundation principles. Women must be able to make their own decisions & live with agency. In the face of stark health inequities, people need greater access to health services, not less

'Pandemics are a solvable problem' — @BillGates outlines what we can learn from COVID-19 and what we can do to help prevent the next pandemic
