Very honoured to receive this award and share it with Johan Rockström affirming the vital role of holistic & systemic analysis of health and health systems, to support action for social justice. That’s the lens of #hpsr - and it is crucial. Massive thanks to all from whom I learn!

Into a third cohort now, with amazing contingents of policy-facing modellers-in-training across three simultaneously running groups. It has been a lot of hard work, but it has been rewarding to see the small steps and the ensuing progress for our trainees. We will #KeepPushing

A gender-focused approach is key in the fight against #malaria. Looking forward to having this conversation on the sidelines of #UNGA.
