In a year that tested global solidarity, health equity stayed front and centre.
This media roundup highlights how @pih.org advanced care, advocacy, and dignity in 2025.

From @bostonglobe.com to @forbes.com and @apnews.com, we got to hear from @joiamukherjee.bsky.social and @madhupai.bsky.social

We believe in transparency and accountability so here’s our full statement on the foreign aid cuts that have been happening across all of last year.

Global health progress didn’t happen by accident.
It happened because governments chose to invest, year after year, in health systems, community care, and prevention. 🧵

Fragile health systems are not accidents of geography or fate. They are the result of centuries of man-made systems that drained resources and weakened care long before the outbreak began.

If the conditions were created, they can be undone. What does that take?

We are honoured to partner with Dr @monicamalta.bsky.social & York University on the Agents of Change course. From digital stories rooted in values to on-campus events, students demonstrated creativity & leadership at every step.

Let’s give the leaders of tomorrow the tools to actually lead.

global health cuts aren’t numbers on a page — they’re missed hiv treatments, clinics under strain, and lives pushed closer to the edge.

in Toronto, @zackieachmat.bsky.social named the moment clearly: solidarity has to cross borders. ✊🏽🌍

Just read this Devex news piece, and I can’t stop thinking about this line by Dr. Jean Kaseya of the Africa CDC:
➡️ “Up to 60% of foreign health aid to Africa is effectively wasted.”
That’s not a typo. Sixty percent.

From poverty to displacement to systemic inequity, mental well-being is shaped by far more than what happens inside a clinic.

🙅🏾‍♀️ Year-end giving season means an endless barrage of comments around “helping Canadians first”. With the backdrop of #Budget2025 announcing a whopping $2.7B cut to the #InternationalAssistance Envelope (IAE), it feels important to address comments like these.

She was 4 months pregnant. Walking to collect her school report card.
Then, in an instant, she fell. And couldn’t stand up again.

In Jojoima, Sierra Leone, far from the capital, 23-year-old Fatimata’s world collapsed. She lay on the ground, paralyzed from the waist down, terrified. 🧵1️⃣

When we think of #accompaniment, our work alongside communities in #WestAfrica quickly comes to mind. 🌍
When @pih.org was invited to provide urgent support in responding to #Ebola. But rather than provide short-term emergency support, we looked deeper. 👀

...and so it begins 🧡
eleven years ago, Kono, Sierra Leone was at the heart of the Ebola crisis.

today, that same community is home to the Paul E. Farmer Maternal Center of Excellence: a place of healing, dignity, and hope. 🍀
