Today, we adopted the Global Health Resilience Initiative, Europe's plan for stronger global health.
There is nothing more valuable than health. In today's interconnected world, a virus does not stop at borders and prevention is cheaper than reaction.

I much regret the cancellation of the RightsCon conference in 🇿🇲. Such fora present an important platform for dialogue on human rights and tech. It would have been the first time in sub-sahara Africa. A missed opportunity, also to highlight regional perspectives. #RightsCon

It is with heavy hearts that we share: RightsCon will not proceed in Zambia or online.
ALT STATEMENT: It is with heavy hearts that we share: RightsCon will not proceed in Zambia or online. We understand this news is deeply upsetting for our community and while we know everyone has questions, our goal right now is to notify you of the event’s status because many of you have imminent travel plans. We do not recommend registered participants travel to Lusaka for RightsCon. Over the last 48 hours we have experienced an overwhelming surge of support from civil society, government representatives, sponsors, and our community as a whole. For this, we wholeheartedly thank you. We’ll communicate more information soon.

I welcome the strong support from Members of the DEVE Committee to back our international partnerships with the resources needed to deliver.
Today’s debate in the European Parliament confirmed that investing in stability in fragile countries or global health is important for Europe’s own security.

We’re grateful to see ProtectDefenders.eu recognised in today’s remarks: defending human rights is a team effort.
We’ve supported 94,000 defenders worldwide, and the need is only growing.
Our work continues, and so must global support for HRDs.
