I would like to extend my congratulations to all my fellow candidates. However, it is with regret that I note the absence of female candidates in this election. This highlights the ongoing need for greater gender diversity and inclusion in our political landscape. Out of 47

Women account for 67% of the health and care workforce and yet they are still paid 24% less on average than men working in the sector: who.int/news/item/13-0… This needs to end. #EqualPayDay

I am sorry to see that despite years of talk, gender inequality is on full display at the #UNGA General Debate. Less than 10% of speakers this week are women. This is unacceptable – especially when we know gender equality delivers for peace, climate action and much more.

Women's leadership is needed more than ever as decisions are made on global challenges. #WomenLeaders met today at #UNGA where we hear “Her Excellency” far fewer times than "His Excellency". Representation matters. Speech by Sima Bahous: unwo.men/n59N50TuJ6H #Beijing30

An honour and a privilege for myself and my colleague Dr Norah O. to represent WomenLift Health at this historic signing of a partnership agreement between the two organisations. A huge step for supporting women leadership in health. Also nice to be back in Addis for a little bit.
