7 April 2022 - Our planet, our health
Are we able to reimagine a world where clean air, water and food are available to all?
Where economies are focused on health and well-being?
Where cities are liveable and people have control over their health and the health of the planet?
In the midst of a pandemic, a polluted planet, increasing diseases like cancer, asthma, heart disease, on World Health Day 2022, WHO will focus global attention on urgent actions needed to keep humans and the planet healthy and foster a movement to create societies focused on well-being.
WHO estimates that more than 13 million deaths around the world each year are due to avoidable environmental causes. This includes the climate crisis which is the single biggest health threat facing humanity. The climate crisis is also a health crisis.

Lessons+for+a+feminist+Covid-19+economic+recovery+report.pdf (squarespace.com)
Report: Times of crisis and renewal present opportunities for brave and innovative policy choices. Yet, despite calls to “build back better”, powerful actors around the world are showing little real vision.
Written in collaboration with feminists and women’s rights organisations in four countries, Argentina, India, the Philippines and Uganda, this report examines some of the policy measures enacted by governments in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, and the impacts of those policies on gender equality and women’s economic rights.
In particular, the report draws on the real-life accounts and experiences of women who have borne the greatest impacts of Covid-19, and whose voices must be central to recovery design. The report also seeks to move from critique to proposition. Using the experiences of the four countries examined in this report, along with many alternative approaches to economic recovery planning put forward by feminists, women’s rights organisations and labour movements around the world, we have developed concrete lessons which demonstrate that feminist alternatives are not just necessary but also viable.
