Global Citizen

Gender injustice in the tech industry keeping you up at night? ?? Yep, us too! There's only one solution: let's make a midnight snack and chat about it. Although digital technology is the most advanced it's ever been, the number of women in tech leadership is going backwards, which is bad news for everyone. It's a sticky situation, a lot like the sweet treats our Woman In The Kitchen is making in this episode. Let's get into it.

?? We are thrilled to wrap up this incredible exhibition and share the powerful stories featured in it. March 18–20, 2025, the European Parliament hosted a powerful exhibition showcasing the EU’s impact on global health through its investments in initiatives like Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance and The Global Fund. This visual journey features powerful stories of lives saved, resilient communities built, and health systems strengthened worldwide. ???? This exhibition highlights the tangible impact of the European Union’s investments in global health, with real stories of lives changed and communities strengthened. ??? From Muhammed Saleh, a child from nomadic Beja pastoralists in eastern Sudan, gaining access to life-saving vaccines thanks to health workers braving conflict and terrain, to the powerful image of a Ukrainian health worker in a mobile clinic on the frontline—this exhibition showcases the resilience and dedication of those on the frontlines. ???? It reminds us of the urgent need for continued investment in global health and collaboration to overcome challenges like conflict and climate change. ???? The EU's role in ensuring that hope and healing reach those in need has never been more vital. ?? Join us in celebrating the EU’s unwavering commitment to global health and solidarity. This exhibition emphasizes the transformative power of investments in the fight against AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. ?? A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this exhibition possible, including the talented photographers, health workers, and communities that allowed us to share their inspiring stories. ???? ???? Special thanks to MEP Charles Goerens, his assistant Yves Hoffmann, and the European Parliament for their unwavering support and for providing the platform to showcase these stories within this esteemed institution. Your commitment to global health strengthens the collective impact of these efforts. ?? ???? We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to the President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, for her continued support in making this exhibition possible. Your leadership ensures the importance of global health remains a priority in the European Parliament. ????
