Advancing women’s #health research is essential not only to strengthening the quality and integrity of medical science — but also to unlocking meaningful innovation in #healthcare. When we close the gaps in research, we gain a more complete understanding of human biology. This fuels the development of smarter, more inclusive health solutions — ultimately improving outcomes for everyone. Through the World Economic Forum’s Global Alliance for Women’s Health, we are promoting policies that catalyze robust, evidence-based innovation. By embedding #women’s needs into the core of scientific inquiry and product development, we can drive forward a new era of health #innovation — one that works for all. Now is the time to move from commitment to action — and ensure women’s health is no longer overlooked, but prioritized at the heart of global health innovation. Better science leads to better innovation — and better outcomes for every patient, everywhere.

Supporting healthy ageing through primary health care💪 Policymakers, health leaders and partners from across the South-East European Health Network (SEEHN) came together in Bar, Montenegro, with the support of WHO, to inform WHO/Europe’s forthcoming strategy "Ageing is Living: Promoting a Lifetime of Health and Well-being (2026–2030)." The strategy will prioritize prevention, transform care ecosystems, foster enabling environments and challenge ageism. A recurring theme throughout the discussions was the central role of primary health care (PHC) in enabling these ambitions. Working groups emphasized that strong PHC systems can: 🔹 Support older populations through person-centred, continuum of care 🔹 Prevent ill health and promote well-being across the life course 🔹 Enable reforms in long-term care by integrating services closer to communities 🔹 Contribute to financially sustainable health systems in ageing societies Organized with SEEHN and supported by the Central European Initiative (CEI), the workshop reflects WHO/Europe’s commitment to working hand-in-hand with countries to ensure ageing is seen not as a burden, but as an opportunity for stronger, more sustainable health systems. #PHC4UHC #HealthForAll Central European Initiative - CEI South Eastern Europe Health Network Natasha Azzopardi Muscat Melitta Jakab GianMatteo Apuzzo Yongjie Yon

European Association for the Study of Diabetes e.V. (EASD) has unveiled new clinical practice guidelines for addressing diabetes distress. In what they describe as “an important step in recognizing the impact of emotional well-being on diabetes outcomes,” these guidelines aim to make addressing diabetes distress a standard of care instead of an afterthought. Diabetes distress is a normal part of navigating diabetes, so let’s normalize caring for it, too.

📚Today’s #MondayRead is a study protocol that will assess the barriers and enablers to Antimicrobial Stewardship (#AMS) programmes for upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) in Kosovo’s primary care, developed as part of the ICARS-supported project ‘Addressing antibiotic overuse through continuous quality improvement: developing and assessing stewardship interventions in primary care in Kosovo’. 🧾Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), the qualitative case study will collect data from central organisations and primary care facilities through interviews and focus groups, using framework analysis to identify key themes.   💡AMS programmes are essential for mitigating antimicrobial resistance (#AMR), but structural weaknesses within the health system pose significant barriers to implementation. By generating evidence on what supports or hinders AMS in Kosovo, this study aims to contribute valuable insights for improving prescribing practices and strengthening the country’s response to AMR.
