Today is #WorldTBDay. We must make the fight to #EndTB equitable, rights-based, & people-centered. Together, we must accelerate efforts to provide equitable access to prevention, treatment & care to all people affected by TB, especially those most vulnerable. #YesWeCanEndTB

This #WorldTBDay, let's commit to scaling up partnerships across the continent to ensure #AllAfricans have access to affordable #TB prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. 💊 As Gaurang Tanner emphasizes, investing in the fight to #EndTB is an investment in Africa's future.

#WorldTBDay reminds us that tuberculosis is not a relic of the past. Each year, more than 1.6 million people die from the disease. Fortunately, there are many innovations in the TB R&D pipeline which could transform how we detect, treat, and prevent it. forbes.com/sites/robertha…

Together, we can #EndTB. When world leaders work together anything is possible. Eliminating TB is no exception. #WorldTBDay

As Women's History Month comes to a close, which equality issues do you think world leaders must prioritize this year?

Every person and child worldwide should have access to… 💦 Clean drinking water 🚽 Safe sanitation 🧼 Proper hygiene This should be a top priority for all world leaders and organizations. #WorldWaterDay

To build a world where safe sanitation is accessible for all, we must accelerate change through: ☑ Stronger policies and national action ☑ Inclusive urban sanitation services ☑ Technologies to improve waste management Together, we can make every day #WorldWaterDay.

Water is a precious resource and a human right. Equitable access to water is essential to creating a world where everyone can thrive. Access to #WASH services is vital for women and girls to live with dignity, and to study and work safely. #SDG6 #SDG5 #WorldWaterDay

As we rapidly approach 2030, over 3 billion people around the world still live without safely managed sanitation. It’s time to accelerate #wateraction to solve the water and sanitation crisis. bit.ly/2F3iWsn #WorldWaterDay #SanitationforAll

Thinking about the importance of safe sanitation on #WorldWaterDay. Incredible to visit this treatment plant in Bhubaneswar & learn about the impact of our partnership w/ the Govt. of Odisha in providing livelihoods to Self Help Groups & the safety & dignity of sanitation workers

Agriculture is the main source of income for hundreds of millions of people. One of the biggest priorities for the world has to be preserving agriculture as an effective pathway out of poverty and helping farmers create the lives that they deserve.

When women have the power to make financial decisions for themselves and their families, their lives are transformed. Watch how digital banking is changing the game in India.

.@AiyyoShraddha joined @BillGates to learn about TB at an urban health center in Mumbai. They met Ria and Anjula, two young TB patients, and got the chance to understand the treatment procedures. Watch the video for the full story! #KnockoutTB #TBMuktBharat

Meeting the #Goalkeepers2030 community is always an energizing experience. The incredible young leaders of this community play a significant role in accelerating progress toward the SDGs.

A CDC report shows that Black women in the US are 2.6 times more likely than white women to die during & after childbirth. At #Goalkeepers2030, @doccrearperry spoke about the bias in maternal health & the steps needed to ensure equitable access to care: bit.ly/3LFKyrg

A future free of pandemics is worth investing in. @BillGates discusses the network of public health leaders from around the world that could help stop the next pandemic before it even starts. @WHO nyti.ms/3JwEP4e

Ghana’s adoption of WHO’s “treat all” approach has allowed more people with HIV to get the treatment they need to live healthy lives. A new initiative aims to expand treatment access and care even further. bit.ly/3n4WU1M

New research is revealing stark trends in maternal mortality, including in the US. But this story isn't new. We must invest in women’s health so that even during times of crisis, women can get the care they need for themselves and their children: bit.ly/40302dh

What works in one country isn’t guaranteed to work in another. #COVID19 responses showcased that the only way to achieve significant improvements in health outcomes is by following context-driven solutions tailored to each country’s needs. bit.ly/3n3p8Kh

A year since Russia's invasion of Ukraine sparked a global food crisis, there's hope in the world's response— but much more can be done to promote #sustainableagriculture and ensure #foodsecurity in Africa. gates.ly/3yLUxDP

.@susanbyrnes Chief Communications Officer @gatesfoundation reflects on her interaction with #SHGs in Bihar, where she learned how women having agency and knowledge gain the confidence to help others as well.

When women have the power to make financial decisions for themselves and their families, their lives are transformed. Watch how digital banking is changing the game in India.

Over the last 2 decades, @PEPFAR has saved as many as 25 million lives—and has served as a model around the globe for HIV treatment and care. “Americans should be proud of this amazing program." —@CarlosdelRio7 nytimes.com/2023/03/14/hea…

Hi, I’m Vicki Wilde (@wilde_vicki) & I lead women’s empowerment in agriculture development @gatesfoundation! Today, I’m taking over Rodger’s Twitter account & sharing lessons I’m learning from the rural women who provide our food systems. #WomensHistoryMonth

Every person has a right to live free from the burden of poverty, and it is our collective duty to create a world in which it is possible.

Thanks to @socceraid and @UNICEF_uk for bringing together two amazing sides in support of a healthier world for our children. Let’s keep up the momentum and strengthen our efforts to #EndPolio and other vaccine-preventable diseases. twitter.com/UNICEF_uk/stat…

Learn how @GatesUS is helping build the math classroom all students deserve: usprogram.gatesfoundation.org/what-we-do/k-1…

We believe that all students can see themselves as ‘math people’ and find the joy of math. So, here’s a #PiDay test: how many digits of pi do you have memorized?

What do all these numbers mean? Math helps students answer that question and make sense of the world around them — on #PiDay and every day. twitter.com/AllanGolston/s…
