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.

A car dealership in Ballston Spa, NY is turning out Emmy-worthy videos on TikTok. The best way to describe Mohawk Chevrolet’s strategy is if The Office took place at a car dealership. I interviewed the (very funny) woman behind them, Grace Kerber. Here’s what I learned:

The movement towards placing *HEALTH AS THE HUMAN FACE OF CLIMATE CHANGE* has been accelerated by the adoption of the Climate change and health resolution at #WHA77 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
We have many to thank including @WHO and @COP28_UAE Presidency and all the health ministers, partners and advocates who made this a reality.
It’s taken 28 Conference of Parties to put human health at the centre of a crisis that’s so clearly a health issue and that’s what @COP28_UAE did and made a smooth runway for this adoption and glad to have been a Climate and Health Envoy for @COP28_UAE
We look forward to more gains in #COP29 #COP30 and most importantly to responsive financing to save lives as well as real action on reduction of destructive carbon emissions!
We thank all the countries that sponsored this resolution Barbados, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Fiji, Georgia, Kenya, Moldova, Monaco, Netherlands (Kingdom of the),
Panama, Peru, Philippines, Slovenia, United Arab Emirates and
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
@Amref_Worldwide is honoured to have been part of this journey together with @wellcometrust @RockefellerFdn @GlobalFund @gavi @LancetCountdown @climate @GCHAlliance @PACJA1
