With­out sus­tain­able fund­ing, the World Health Or­gan­i­sa­tion can­not suc­ceed in its mis­sion to de­liv­er health for all.

Up­hold­ing a child’s ba­sic right to ed­u­ca­tion is more im­por­tant when chil­dren are dis­placed and ex­iled from their homes.

The rights of the world’s most vul­ner­a­ble and the most des­o­late girls must be cham­pi­oned and made real.

The G-20 will not achieve growth and sta­bil­i­ty with­out a re­newed fo­cus on long-term debt re­duc­tion.
