It was a pleasure exchanging thoughts with DG of @IDSAIndia @SujanChinoy . Thank you for the kind welcome to the IDSA.
Just figured that @qatarairways codeshare with @FlyRwandAir means QR prices and Rwandair unprofessionalism! No prep by @FlyRwandAir to receive planeload of massively delayed pax with connecting flights in Doha. Unbelievable for an airline headed by @IATA Chairwoman @YvonneMakolo
Delighted to have participated in the prestigious Kigali Global Dialogue in #kigali, #rwanda , as a panellist discussing "Noxious Air: The Progress Dilemma." It was a fantastic opportunity to delve into the policy options for addressing #airpollution, the…lnkd.in/gRVp2GWA

Let @WHO focus on science n not expect it to babysit society! Digest @WHO know-how, contextualise it and share with ur audiences.

Imagine our response to #COVID19 without the World Health Organization? In a globalised yet fragmented world, crises remind us of the value of #Multilateralism.

When top #leadership fails they rush to blame their foot soldiers! Shameful! This case is beyond palliative care! bit.ly/2Xen6bG @indiancongress_ @timesofindia @NYOOOZindia #indianelections2019
Deja vu every time panelists start talking of financing of @WHO at @IHEID @GHC_IHEID pre- #wha72 event. As helpful as discussing reform of the UN Security Council ! @IlonaKickbusch @PeterASinger @DrTedros
Panel on #Transforming @WHO gradually diluting n turning into an endless wishlist! Panelists seem to want the @WHO to become @WorldBank #Imagine @IlonaKickbusch @DrTedros @PeterASinger
Panel discussion on #Transforming @WHO without any low-income country representation at @IHEID
@GHC_IHEID pre #wha72 . Missed opportunity, though not unusual! @IlonaKickbusch @DrTedros @PeterASinger
#CivilSociety rep reiterates importance of not diminishing #Normative role of @WHO at @IHEID @GHC_IHEID
3rd panelist repeating this message? Is there reason for worry that @WHO is abdicating this role? @DrTedros @PeterASinger @unfoundation @IlonaKickbusch #wha72
Quite a lot of work to be done on #Transformation agenda of @WHO, highlights need for high-calibre talent at country level. #Sweden refreshingly straight forward n says they take @WHO seriously :-) @IHEID
@GHC_IHEID @unfoundation @IlonaKickbusch #wha72
#Sweden rep says that the strategy on the 3rd billion people is not yet there at @IHEID @GHC_IHEID @PeterASinger @DrTedros @IlonaKickbusch
#Mexico insists @WHO not ignore its core business of #Norms at @IHEID @GHC_IHEID. Applauds @DrTedros for effective #GenderEquity work. @IlonaKickbusch
