🎉 It is official: the #WHOAcademy has opened its door to the world!
I'm truly honoured and privileged to be part of this historic moment for @WHO and global health.
My deepest gratitude to President @EmmanuelMacron for his personal engagement and leadership since the inception, and to #France for its strong commitment to the success of this project.
Human rights are
✔️Preventive
✔️Protective
✔️Transformative
Today on #HumanRightsDay, we celebrate the power of rights to transform our health, address inequalities & ensure everyone's dignity.

📢 In 3 weeks we will officially launch the @WHO Academy with @DrTedros and @EmmanuelMacron joining us for the ceremony!
Stay tuned for more updates on how the Academy will revolutionize global health learning and empower millions to build healthier futures.
#HealthForAll🌍
In just three weeks, on December 17th, I will join President @EmmanuelMacron in Lyon to formally open the #WHOAcademy.
This ceremony marks the culmination of a journey that began seven years ago. The Academy is one of several initiatives from the @WHO Transformation aimed at building the capacities of both WHO’s workforce and Member States.
Our vision is simple yet powerful: a world where every health and care worker, policymaker, and WHO team member is equipped with the skills and competencies necessary to achieve health for all.
I would like to thank #France and all the Member States who believed in this idea and supported us in making it a reality!
Today on #WorldHumanitarianDay, we honour the humanitarians who lost their lives while serving others.
We are calling for the safety, dignity and protection of those in crisis and the people who serve them. #ActForHumanity #ProtectAidWorkers

Every person has the right to seek safety.
💙 Whoever they are.
💙 Wherever they come from.
💙 Whenever they are forced to flee.

Refugee-led organizations (RLOs) play a vital role in the refugee response sector. Yet, there is a widespread failure to properly fund the RLOs doing some of the most important and effective work.

🆘 Today, only 3% of humanitarian aid goes to #education.
Moreover, numbers tell a sad story about #refugees (adolescent & children) as well as girls and #LearningPoverty in Fragility, Conflict, Violence (FCV) settings.

The African Union year of education is a historic moment - and couldn't come at a better time.
In 2050, 1 in every 4 people will be African and education will be crucial to unleash the continent's potential for a green, prosperous and stable future.
