We practiced with caskets that were stored outside our barracks building. To simulate the weight of honored remains, we’d toss several full sandbags into the belly of the casket and then, for hours, we’d go through our exact movements.
Over and over and over.

@ssrc_org's #MercuryProject has 18 awesome teams (120+ social & behavioral scientists!). We also come together as a consortium to learn from another and outside experts, making us better than when we started and greater than the sum of our parts.

ALT Graphics card reading: What if solutions-oriented researchers effectively communicated their findings in ways appealing to--and actionable by--the public, press, and policymakers? To support the adoption of vaccine-demand evidence into practice, #MercuryProject: 1. Convenes teams to collectively questions such as how to become an effective communicator. 2. Connects teams with outside experts, such as comms whizzes Estelle Willie and Ann Searight Christiano. 3. Co-creates useful products, such as our Mercury Project Evidence Uptake Checklist.

“By learning from and acting on high-quality social and behavioral science evidence, we can strengthen global #vaccine demand chains, ensuring that vaccines on shelves become vaccinations in arms for everyone, everywhere.” Great piece! @ssrc_org @hlanthorn @gavi
Funding vaccines--& vaccinations. Here's my writing w/ #MercuryProject Co-Director Rebecca on how to make sure we get a return on investment.
[Spoiler: it's investing in demand chains to ensure people are ready, willing, able to vaccinate.]

The health gains from climate mitigation and adaptation outweigh the costs and are a compelling argument for stronger #ClimateAction Thank you for @DrTedros for your leadership in advancing climate action. #ClimatexHealth
The #ClimateCrisis is a health crisis.
And it’s not a hypothetical crisis in the future. It’s right here and right now.
The health gains from climate mitigation and adaptation outweigh the costs and are a compelling argument for stronger #ClimateAction.
We thank #WHA77 delegates for their commitment.

In March next year, we will hold the Second @WHO Global Conference on #AirPollution and Health in #Colombia, bringing together global leaders and experts to focus on concrete solutions to improve air quality, mitigate climate change and protect public health. #WHA77
Quite possibly my favorite meeting. And it fitting that it was my last one to cap off #WHA77! @MarinaRomanello
At today’s #WHA77 climate and health strategic roundtable, world leaders, advocates, funders come together to shape the global health architecture for addressing the climate crisis. @WHO Watch here 👇🏾#climatexhealth

@RideLives WHO CxH resolution is like a prescription and only work if actions are followed.
@GlobalFund together with @theGCF @WorldBank @RockefellerFdn @WHO we are working to increase quality and quantity of climate-health financing needs underlined by core principle of country ownership.

@ukfcdorbx There is no room for siloed efforts to deliver climate action for improved health. Global health institutions must work with development banks and climate funders to pick up the pace. #WHA77
