This is an in-person event.
The 79th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 79), will take place in New York from 10 – 24 September. You will be participating in an official side event on 23 September titled, “Integrating a Gender Lens in the Fight Against Malaria: A dialogue exploring the power of women’s leadership in malaria eradication,” hosted by WomenLift Health and the RBM Partnership to End Malaria.
Malaria remains one of the world’s killer diseases, claiming lives and countries’ progress especially in areas with limited resources. The impact of malaria is greater among marginalized communities and particularly affects women and children. Although women play a critical role in healthcare they are underrepresented, holding just a quarter of leadership positions across the global health space.
This session will explore how reimagining leadership, particularly by elevating women in leadership roles, can significantly impact the fight against malaria, especially in the context of climate change, and drive better health outcomes.
