Reflecting on the #DELTASAfrica 10-year anniversary meeting, there’s so much science in Africa. #ScienceDiplomacy is required to increase its utility & visibility. Science is not a stranger in #Africa. Science lives here!

At #IADR2025, I gave the Distinguished Lecture Series - Opportunities for Oral Health Professionals in #HealthSecurity. Thru mentorship; more #GlobalHealth in #OralHealth; & growing future leaders. “When it comes to global health security, there is no “them”, there’s only “us”! #UntilWeAreAllSafe.

One frame, two decades of @villagereach.bsky.social leadership. Emily Bancroft, Allen Wilcox & @laktarr001.bsky.social. Allen led the early development, Emily steered its growth, Ahmed stands on their shoulders during major transitions in #GlobalHealth. It’s a marathon & a relay. To more success. 🥂

May 25, 1963 #AfricanUnity arose. The vision of the founding leaders is embodied in #Agenda2063. #AfricaDay 2025 is the #YearOfReparations for African people & those of African descent.
Address historical injustices & walk to a more equitable future!

I was honored to speak (virtually) at an important #WHA78 side event on the UN High Level Meeting on #NCDs. I emphasized the need to ensure #OralHealth is in the final declaration and be part of the indicators for success.

#ClimateChange & #AMR are a big threat to #globalhealth. “We need knowledge, infrastructure & funding to address this double challenge” - my message at the #UNGA79 side event.
