Thanks, Global Health Security Fund for having me facilitate the session on storytelling for the ‘Youth for Biosecurity 2024 Fellowship’. With the event-present danger of infectious disease outbreaks, storytelling via diverse platforms would help mobilize communities for action. Ultimately, “whoever tells the stories, writes history”.
Everyone can be a powerful storyteller! Yesterday, Ifeanyi Nsofor, MD shared this empowering message with the #Youth4Biosecurity fellows during the online Communications workshop. Effective communication is vital for #biosafety and #biosecurity experts to better tailor messages for various stakeholders and ultimately address global challenges more effectively. We are grateful to Ifeanyi Nsofor, MD for generously sharing his expertise. It is a privilege to support young and talented experts through the initiative organized by the BWC Implementation Support Unit. Looking forward to meeting the fellows in person next month. #Youth4Biosec #1972BWC #BWC #BiologicalWeapons #UNODA #Storytelling #YouthEmpowerment #YouthEmpowerment #GlobalHealth #LifeSciences #YouthOpportunities #CommunicationSkills #ScienceDiplomacy

Thank you to Emma Ross and Dr. Karishma Krishna Kurup of Chatham House for co-organizing a fantastic sponsored session with us about "Strategic stockpiling for supply chain resilience: Considerations for health emergency preparedness and deterrence by denial" on June 19th at the Global Health Security Conference #GHS2024 in Sydney, Australia! Thank you also to our wonderful speakers for sharing your time and your unique insights into today's most pressing challenges on stockpiling: Paul Friedrichs of The White House FERDINAL FERNANDO of The ASEAN Secretariat Fatima Tafida of the World Health Organization African Region Bangin Brim of the European Commission Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority #HERA Moderated by Emma Ross and Andrew Nerlinger, the session presented a truly global perspective that addressed all stages of building and maintaining strategic stockpiles for health emergency response. We were particularly interested in observations about the role of the private sector in stockpiling, including the discussion about how building sustainable demand can effectively drive sustained increases in production capacity. Let's keep this conversation going!

Thank you Bangin Brim for joining our session - jointly organized with Chatham House - and for sharing the #HERA perspective on stockpiling and deterrence by denial! #GHS2024
It was an honor to represent #HERA, European Commission's Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority, during this year’s Global Health Security Conference #GHS2024 in Sydney. I had the privilege to 💊 join the panel with Paul Friedrichs (The White House), FERDINAL FERNANDO (ASEAN) and Fatima Tafida (WHO AFRO) to discuss the regional approaches to #stockpiling in the context of health emergency preparedness, supply chain resilience and deterrence by denial, organized by Chatham House and Global Health Security Fund – shout-out to Emma Ross, Karishma Kurup and Andrew Nerlinger –, 💡 join the panel on innovative medical countermeasures, moderated by Oyebola Oyebanji (FHI 360) and joined by Benoît LALEU (Medicines for Malaria Venture) and Jake O'Donnell (The University of Queensland), and 💉 present HERA’s institutional approach to prioritizing and analyzing serious and life-threatening cross-border health threats. An incredibly rich and exciting week, with lots of highly valuable exchanges with esteemed colleagues in the field of #HealthSecurity – very much looking forward to the next conference, and all the valuable exchanges in the meantime! 🔥
