There are 1,440 minutes in a day. Social media wants as many of them as possible. We only want one. Introducing 9PM: A social visual diary.

Hard to overstate how big a failure DOGE was. The government slashed its workforce without meaningfully shrinking the government’s overall footprint. So taxpayers got a less capable bureaucracy while spending billions paying people not to work. It was mostly performance art.

I deeply love working with UN agencies like WHO, WFP and UNICEF, meeting inspiring people having dedicated their lives to the greater good. The multicultural environment is magical: these are places where you realize how much we humans share before our cultures differentiate us.

It sometimes feels like encountering a real-life Star Trek Federation. These institutions aren't perfect in their execution, but their founding principles and goals like the SDGs make them a beacon of hope in a world full of sowers of dissension.

This is a bit depressing. It really feels like like dubious ethics and number of users are directly correlated.

🚀Last week, @blsqhub brought all our Project Managers to Brussels for an exciting #PMWeek! Here’s what our PM @LBroek97B had to say: "Our PM Week brought together Bluesquare’s Project Managers for dynamic days of training, team synergy, and collaboration. It was a great chance to exchange insights on global projects, explore new ways to collaborate, and align our visions for cohesive execution. I loved learning about the diverse topics my colleagues are tackling to address healthcare disparities. I'm grateful to work with such a fun, dedicated team as we continue delivering high-impact solutions." Ready to make an impact?

Like Mr Batamack, a motorbike taxi driver in the city of #Douala, let's get vaccinated against #yellowfever from 24 to 30 July 2024. A single dose of yellow fever vaccine protects for life. The #vaccine is safe and effective. #YellowFeverOut24 #DoualaYFOut24

I love the work we do at @blsqhub on geographical data both as a geek and for the impact it has on public health systems.
High-quality boundaries are crucial for health systems, because it is provides: ✅Reliable population data and, ✅Clear health district definitions to optimize healthcare delivery, ✅Data on distances to health centers to improve healthcare accessibility. 1/
