Meta, Twitter have checks for misinformation. Too bad Uber doesn’t for drivers given what drivers have tried to have me believe, eg, all covid prevention measures are deemed ineffective by JHU? There are undiscovered DNA strands? Also, stay in your lanes literally & figuratively

The decision today by the U.S. Supreme Court undermines what we have been working toward since our founding—the right of a woman, wherever she lives, to be at the center of her care and in charge of her sexual and reproductive health. Our statement: jhpiego.org/news/standing-…

Men caregivers play a critical role to ensure kids grow up safe, healthy & supported. Just in time for #FathersDay , check out this USAID MOMENTUM infographic on how to engage men in nurturing care for children: usaidmomentum.org/resource/how-t…

Emergencies like #COVID19 increase gender based violence risk factors. The response must include evidence-based interventions that target the root causes of #GBV —gender norms and inequalities that condone and perpetuate men’s power over women.

I’m going to keep saying this until I don’t have to: Incident reports to hospitals, clinics, police wildly underestimate & distort #SGBV #IPV burden. Stigma, fear, minimization -> underreporting & tendency to report severe or stranger-perpetrated cases
#LevelUp #GBVDataLiteracy

Jhpiego knows changing #gender norms requires more than empowering women & girls. In #Tanzania alone, we’ve reached 147k+ people through community dialogues, transforming how women AND men think, talk & make equitable health decisions. #BreakTheBias

⁦Jhpiego⁩ we are working to transform gender norms that prevent healthy practices AND perpetuate gender inequalities. Together we can #BreaktheBias . Happy #IWD jhpiego.org/multimedia/the…
