The sun is rising and so are we. Arrived in #Vancouver for #WD2019 to put the status quo on notice. A gender equal world is a better world for all. And we will not go backward.

At #WHA72, we’re pushing for health financing that reduces gender inequities. Too often girls and women don’t get the services they need due to gender-related biases, norms, and financial barriers. #GenderUHC
