Diversity is crucial for better public health intelligence to ensure no one is left behind. This remains at the heart of the work we do

Our ability to design inclusive surveillance & public health interventions requires that we recognise sex & gender as strong determinants

Thank you Prof Sheetal Silal, PhD of Modelling and Simulation Hub, Africa (MASHA). for highlighting the importance of diversity in health response, thinking about where we collect data, who does analysis, & how decisions are made

We need systems thinking to improve public health intelligence & advance health equity

Thank you Prof Jodie McVernon of Doherty Institute for underscoring the critical need to recognise the needs & knowledge of marginalised groups.

A humble plea for ceasefire and peace.

As a child trapped in the shadows of war, I intimately knew its smell, sounds and sights.

I empathize deeply with those now caught in the middle of conflict, feeling their pain as if it were my own.

War brings only devastation, horror,…

On 25 October, we co-hosted the 8th Innovation Forum session with the World Health Organization (WHO) Department of Surveillance Systems. We discussed the importance of data standardization and interoperability to enable timely communication, exchange and use of information during public health outbreaks.

The #WHOPandemicHub hosted an important discussion at #WHS2023 to explore how advanced tools can enable better decisions & coordinated actions in health emergencies.

Without innovation, collaboration & trust, we cannot transform our global public health ecosystem
