Wrapping up our engagement at the #WHS2023! We attended thought provoking sessions on emerging and reemerging topics such as #AI and health, #climate and health, #TB, and others. Great to catch up with many clients and partners and look forward to implementing new ideas! Further, our Mario Ottiglio moderated a very insightful panel on the #UHC and #selfcare, joined by panelist from WHO, UNFPA, GSCF and FIP. This event also served to launch a United Nations interagency statement on self-care interventions for sexual and reproductive health and rights to advance universal health coverage. Stay tuned for a more interactive recap ! A couple of shots below, including a 📸 of our team on the quest for dinner! Cassie Dormond Sophie Robert
