When food systems don’t nourish, health and equity suffer.

In #BurkinaFaso, women farmers are improving child nutrition & resilience through diverse, nutrient-rich crops.

On #WorldFoodDay, we call on the UK to invest in nutrition & co-create a #GlobalHealth Equity Strategy.

Connecting at #WHS2025 🤝

Our Director met with Doctors on Ground (Malaysia) — a network of 3,000+ volunteer doctors providing healthcare for underprivileged communities, including refugees.

Inspiring to see community-led action for health equity. 🌍

Bandana’s journey with KOSHISH Nepal shows how community-led action can transform mental health.

The UK must work with local partners to build lasting change. 🌍

2 billion people face financial hardship paying for health care, often instead of food, education or housing. That’s 1/4 of the world’s population!

This #UHCDay, we call on leaders to invest in #UHC to protect the right to health.

Unaffordable health costs? We’re sick of it!

Undernutrition raises children’s risk of diabetes, heart disease & high blood pressure later in life.

The UK acknowledged this at the #NCDs HLM—now’s the time to keep the pressure on for joined-up action on health and nutrition.

U.S. opposition stalled the NCDs declaration — but global unity hasn’t wavered. Insight from our U.S. partners @globalhealthorg.bsky.social.

📢 At the UN, the UK pledged to tackle the root causes of NCDs — from poor nutrition to air pollution — through a whole-of-society approach.

But words aren’t enough. We must keep the pressure on. ✊

Today’s the day.

The UN meets on NCDs & mental health — a once-in-a-decade chance to act.

Without urgent UK leadership, millions more preventable deaths will follow.

The UK must lead. Add your name now: tinyurl.com/288a27w2

The High-Level Meeting is tomorrow.

NCDs & mental health are claiming millions of lives — especially in LMICs. The UK must step up or stay silent.

💭 Mental health is global — every family is affected.

Thursday's UN summit is a rare chance to put mental health on the world stage.

The UK must act with urgency and ambition.

⏳ 2 days to go.

Every year, 18 million people die too young from chronic diseases — most in LMICs.

The UK must show leadership at the UN summit on NCDs & mental health. But it won’t happen without public pressure.

Just 3 days to go until the UN summit on NCDs & mental health.

Nearly 3 in 4 deaths from NCDs happen in low- & middle-income countries. The toll is preventable — but only if leaders act.

But unless the UK steps up now to #LeadOnNCDs, preventable deaths will keep rising — and health inequality will deepen for generations.
