Incredible presentation by Dominique! Really sound, grounded advice on how we can do our work better.
📢 Dominique Charron @OntVetCollege calls for urgent action to accelerate gender equality, diversity & inclusion in #OneHealth. We need shared decision-making, leadership education, robust evidence, financing reforms, and an OH story that resonates with everyday issues #WOHC2024

Today, the Emergency Committee on #mpox met and advised me that in its view, the situation constitutes a public health emergency of international concern. I have accepted that advice. @WHO is on the ground, working with the affected countries, and others at risk, through our country and regional offices, as well as with partners including the @AfricaCDC, NGOs, civil society and more.
