Women make up 70% of the health workforce globally, incl. 90% of all nurses, BUT
👩🏻⚕️ They occupy only 25% of global health leadership roles
👩🏻⚕️ On average earn 25% less than their male colleagues
We must address the root causes of disparities in women’s and girl’s health

New video📺 to mark #RareDiseaseDay!
Rare #cancers are #cancer types with <6 newly diagnosed cases per 100 000 people per year.
While individually rare, these cancer types combine to account for ~25–30% of all cancer diagnoses & 25% of cancer deaths.

Today is #WorldCancerDay
Each year, 1 million children lose their mother to #cancer. 💔
Cancer can trigger generational hardship & perpetuate cycles of poverty.

A new study provides the first estimates of the global number of maternal orphans due to cancer.
"In 2020, 4.4 million women died from cancer worldwide. We estimated that these deaths led to 1.04 million new orphans." - @valmacsee, @IARCWHO. #WCC2022
