Thank you for being allies @reneengamau @daktari1 by reminding us all that the key question we need to ask ourselves when we enter the room & sit at the table: Who is not there & Who needs to be, when the decisions are made that impact their lives? #LeaveNoOneBehind #Equity
Maximum respect to @daktari1 @Amref_Worldwide who declined to join a manel offering his space to a woman colleague. Dr @Sheetale you need to speak out til all public Health spaces that understand that #InclusionMatters #EquityIsntOptional #ExclusionCostsLives #TheBigChallenge
