This is an important step for YHO and for Youth Health! 💪 We are immensely proud of our president. 💚
Thank you to @EuroHealthNet and the International Youth Health Organization @YHOint for the good exchange. We agreed there is a need to find new ways to invest in prevention and to better involve young people in shaping public health policies.

Public health requires a coordinated response on the national and international level. 🗺 WHO Collaborating Centres highlighted their support for @who in the new @TheLancet open letter. Why? Because we are stronger together. 🤝 Article linked below 👇

Why is #youth following the #INBnegotiations on the #PandemicAccord closely? 🦠 Because 👏our👏 future👏 is 👏on👏 the👏 line! 🌍 Global health must include youth perspectives - from prevention to preparedness. How will the world deal with future pandemics? Let's see 👀
The #PandemicAccord negotiations are still ongoing — the Member States have agreed to resume on Tuesday, after working through the night without any sleep for more than 24h non-stop. We’re very grateful for their commitment. I’m deeply thankful to my colleagues, @WHO staff, who are supporting the negotiations around the clock. They truly make me #ProudToBeWHO.

One fruitful #youth4health consultation on #EPW2 later: Excited to see the European Programme of Work 2025-30 start to take shape with #socialparticipation and #youthengagement at its core! Still, we have a long way and many future hearings to go... 📝💡

Young people will guide us in delivering a European Programme of Work #EPW2 that serves everyone. Today's #youth consultation made it clear: you bring fresh ideas to the table, uncover blind spots & help us understand the challenges faced by 1/3 of our region's population. To prepare our #health systems for global megatrends, we need more than just feedback from youth - we need to collaborate & co-create solutions. I’m committed to ensuring youth voices are heard - loud & clear - every step of the way. Looking forward to welcoming more youth speakers at the #EPW2 public hearings in early 2025! #UnitedActionForBetterHealth

At the first in-person Global Model WHO, youth delegates urge swift action on pandemic prevention, preparedness and response, and urged Member States to successfully conclude their negotiations on a global pandemic agreement.   Global Model WHO is a realistic simulation of the World Health Assembly, the world’s peak health decision making body.   Over 350 youth delegates from 52 countries worked collaboratively to draft resolutions addressing topics incl. climate change, pollution and health, mental health, antimicrobial resistance, the Global Health and Peace Initiative, tuberculosis control, and polio eradication bit.ly/40uR2R7

Of all the many kind and wonderful wishes that are coming my way today, this is extra special! Thank you to all who constitute our #Youth4Health network across the @WHO_Europe Region! I pledge to elevate the role of young persons in health dialogue and policymaking all the more during my second term as WHO/Europe Regional Director! We've come a long way since we established our coalition two years ago - and your robust and vocal presence at this week's 74th Regional Committee for Europe proves that! Your heartfelt support means so much to me - and to all of us who work with you! 🙏🙏🙏 #RC74CPH #RC74 @WHOYouthCouncil @YHOint @UN4Youth @UNYouthAffairs

This is so moving! One of my proudest achievements during my first term as @WHO_Europe Regional Director has been to create the #Youth4Health network - aimed at ensuring young people have a genuine say in health policymaking! We were so pleased to host several youth delegates at our 74th Regional Committee for Europe in Copenhagen this week - and to hear them articulate so clearly the health priorities for youth across Europe and Central Asia! From strength to strength! #RC74CPH #RC74
