Commit to health

The pact for the future must commit to health. There is no future without health. Without health, we cannot eradicate poverty and inequality and tackle our climate crisis. Health is essential to meet all SDGs.

Mental Monday

Let's kickstart this week by shedding light on #MentalHealthMonday! Mental health isn't just about the absence of illness; it's about nurturing our well-being, finding balance, and seeking support when needed. Let's prioritize self-care, and destigmatize conversations.
