It has been a difficult couple of weeks for international development, global health, and WHO.
Ten days ago my dear friend and colleague Tania Cernuschi started the 1 dollar 1 world campaign to show WHO still matters.

Please contribute and share.
Wonderful to witness the adoption of the Pandemic Agreement at the World Health Assembly today
