I can do it. He's like, hey, where's my squad at? There's guys. And I was like, one of you is going to go up. Thank you, Dave. I'm going to try to find the other one.


My name is Lami El-Hazzani. I am from Saudi Arabia. I am one of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation Fellows in 2024. And my health care journey started in 2012. As a patient educator, educating patients with diabetes, pediatric patients, maternal and cancer patients. And then in 2017 I started as the patient empowerment section head to help patients to get engaged and empower and prevent the preventable harm. And now I am working as the partnerships and collaboration manager to partner with local, regional, international entities all to enhance patient safety from all over the world and especially in our country in Saudi Arabia. And I would like to say Happy Women's Day to all. Thank you. Hello everyone. This is Afiqa Munawwar. I have been part of fellowship program with Patient Safety Movement Foundation. On the women's day, I feel glad to share my journey in the health care that I have started work at patient bedside where I have seen the provision of unsafe health care services, the patient issues and their challenges. At that time I thought that I will bring transformation in health care sector in Pakistan based on my effort I became a public health specialist and working with WHO country office Pakistan my focus areas are patient safety quality of a care and hospital sector. If we see the history that health care sector role have been dominated by the men where women face challenges breaking the glass ceiling to reach the top position. So on the women's day, I feel honoured to say that I am a change agent of patient safety quality of a care and hospital sector in Pakistan where I brought marvellous changes. I can say I develop a policy document for the government of Pakistan on the patient safety and hospital sector. I trained more than 350 hospital manager on health care services. So on the women's day, I would like to raise my voice that I am committed to build the safe health care culture in Pakistan. Happy women's day. Hello everyone, I'm Dr. Porto, a fellow of the Patient Safety Movement Foundation. As we celebrate International Women's Day, I speak before you as a grateful beneficiary of the tireless efforts of remarkable women who paved the way for equality in our field. Thanks to their initiatives of this inspiring women before us, women in health care today feel empowered and appreciated. We are now afforded opportunities to engage in training, leadership roles and decision making processes that are shaping the landscape of health care for the better. And the Philippines' significant strides have been made to address women's specific health care needs. For instance, the implementation of laws supporting breastfeeding and their workplace has been a crucial step in promoting the health and well-being of mothers and infants. Additionally, the expansion of maternity leave policies has provided women with necessary time to recover from childbirth and bond with their newborns without compromising their financial security. This year's team for International Women's Day, Inspire Inclusion, serves as a reminder for us to cultivate environments where all women are esteemed and have a seat on the table. Let us commemorate the milestones we have achieved and seize the opportunities that lie ahead. Together, we can continue to amplify women's voices, address women's specific health needs and strive for a more safe, inclusive, and equitable future. Happy International Women's Day! I'm Confort Kingwai from Liberia, West Africa. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Community in General Nursing. Presently, I serve as the Quality Assurance Coordinator at the Ministry of Health specifically in the Health Care Quality Management Unit. Marin joining us, a woman in health care started doing the outbreak of the Ebola piracy in 2014. During that time, all health workers were asked to volunteer their services to beef up and fight against their needs. This experiment was challenging and very emotional, as many lives were lost due to the fragile health system and misinformed professional and limited resources. One of the saddest moments was watching my friend who was a nurse die because of a rich in standard precautions. Over my nine years' career, I have witnessed challenges women and girls seeking health care. Some of the challenges are traveling long distances to help facilitate only to hear insufficient medication, lack of basic IDC supplies, and own affordable installations. But this quantity became varied through one of my fees for reaching where we encounter a problem with gravity in the home labor unable to access proper health care due to financial constraints and facility limitation. Responently, we facilitated a delivery right in the car on our way to the hospital. Now, recognizing the persistent riches in health equity I believe women are inspired to be included if there is a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment. I am a woman.  I love you. My journey in health care has been rich with experiences, challenges, and growth. It all commenced with a profound conviction and unwavering dedication to the field of quality and patient safety. From the beginning, I knew that I wanted to study this field and to make tangible improvements in the health care industry. Fueled by this passion, I embarked on a continuous journey of self-development. I seized every opportunity possible to develop my skills and increase my knowledge in this field. I attended conferences, webinars, training sessions, attained certifications in the field of quality and patient safety and I also participated in several projects to improve the patient's experience, health outcomes, and optimized processes. I am always committed to diversify my field of expertise to step outside my comfort zone and to adapt and adopt to this ever-changing landscape in the health care industry. During my professional journey, I had the privilege of being part of transformative initiatives. It was a great honor to work with diverse team members and health care professionals. I worked on setting quality management programs for starting hospitals, and I also assumed leadership roles fostering a culture of continuous quality improvement, elevating patient services, and refining management styles. I'm a firm believer in collective and cooperative work. I totally believe that we rise by lifting each other up, that we can empower each other to achieve shared successes. That's why I'm always committed to lending a helping hand to guide others, to mentor others in order to achieve their professional goals. I look at my journey so far, and I reflect on it. And I'm filled with gratitude and appreciation for all of the milestones I have achieved and the invaluable lessons that I learned along the way. And I also look ahead, and I'm ready to embrace additional opportunities and challenges. Step fast in my commitment to make a meaningful contribution to the health care field and to have a positive impact. And definitely, I will not be doing it alone. I will also collaborate with all of my colleagues in order to have a positive impact on the health care field. Thank you.


Hey everyone, one of my favorite herbs is basil and so I decided that I would be making a recipe for you that is using pesto sauce because it's just so good and it can be used in a gazillion different ways in different recipes. So today's recipe I decided I would make a pasta dish for you and we're going to be using some salmon and some cannellini beans and some asparagus and we're going to toss it all together. It's going to be quick and easy and it's going to be delicious and nutritious. So I'm Rockin' Robin and I'm going to show you how to do it right after my chef joke. All right, we're going to have two chef jokes today so let's get started with the first one. What do you call an Italian fortune teller who has a negative outlook on the future? A Pesto Mystic. All right, let's talk about our ingredients. First up we have our pasta. You got some options here. I'm using Bons of Pasta which is made out of chickpeas. It is gluten free. You don't have to use that. You can use regular pasta. You could even use Zoodles or you could even do a combination of Zoodles and any pasta that you want. And that way you're just bumping up your vegetable intake and it's very good. Next up is our salmon. Now you could use fresh salmon but I'm making this simple and easy for you. We're using canned salmon and I tell you this is a good brand. It's expensive but salmon is expensive. And that way you're getting some nice protein, good Omega 3's and it's just really healthy. Next up is our pesto sauce. I'm using a store-bought pesto sauce today. You can do the same. You can also make it from scratch which is really healthy and I have a video for you and I'll leave a link for you down in the description. You can find that and make your own if you want. Or a store-bought. Now what you want to look for in a store-bought is really the ingredients. Check out those ingredients. What you want them to be using is real olive oil. Not canola oil, not soybean oil or something else. Every pesto is made with olive oil. I'm also going to be adding a can of cannellini beans here that I've already rinsed and drained. We have some fresh garlic, just a little clove there. I just put it through the old garlic press. Next I'm going to toss in a little bit of shredded carrot. I have some asparagus here that I'm going to cut up into bite-sized pieces. I'm going to garnish this with some fresh basil because I love basil. And I'm going to spice it up with just a little bit of red pepper flakes. We'll need some salt and some olive oil. So I'm going to start off here by working on the asparagus. I'm just going to break off the ends where they break naturally. That way you get rid of the woody part. Feel free to sub in other veggies if you want. You could do broccoli, zucchini. I mean, it's just your preference. I think asparagus goes really well and if you like it, it's a good one to use. All right, I'm going to give these a nice rinse and then we'll chop them up. Okay, we're ready to start cooking. Here's our setup. I've got my frying pan where we're going to be mixing everything in here and cooking it in here. This is our pasta water over here. Let's put a little bit of salt in there and it's getting hot. My pasta is going to take about 8 to 10 minutes to cook. So basically I want to time everything so that everything comes out at the same time. So I've got my large frying pan over medium-high heat and what we're going to do first is add some olive oil to that and get it hot. And we're going to saute our vegetables for just a few minutes. Take the raw edge off, get them slightly al dente. Whatever vegetables you're using, you'll want to do that. So toss those in along with the carrots. So we're going to cook this for about four minutes or until the veggies are about al dente. Now I'm just going to put a touch of salt in here just to bring out a little flavor. This is almost done. Now our pasta water is ready, boiling away over here. It's time to cook our pasta. I'll drop that in and give it a stir. Check that in eight minutes. Alright, it's been about four minutes here on the asparagus and the carrots. It is time to add the garlic. I'm going to toss that in, work it in for one minute just to mellow out the flavor. Give it a good stir. I've turned my heat down to medium low and now we're going to add our beans to the mixture just to heat them up. They're already cooked, of course. Same thing with the salmon, it's already cooked so we're going to add that in. I broke it up into little pieces so that it would spread around and break it up some more. I'm going to sprinkle in some red pepper flakes, just a few. I'm going to stir the pasta, make sure that's going well. Now I'm going to add the pesto sauce to this. And we're going to keep some of that pasta water because we might use it to thin out this sauce in our dish here. So I've got the pesto sauce in there. Feel free to add more if you like more sauce. Now all we have to do is wait for the pasta to be done and it goes right in the pan and dinner is served. This is a quick meal any day of the week. While the pasta is cooking, we have time for Chef Joke number two. Alright, so what did the Italian magician say after his trick? Pesto! Okay, pasta is done, I'm going to drain it and I'm going to pour it into our pan and we're going to mix it up. Now because I like a little more pesto sauce, I'm going to add just a little bit more to this. Just a little bit. Mix it in the best you can. It is ready to go guys, this is time to eat. The only thing left to do for our dish, and it looks fantastic, is to chop up some fresh basil and I'll just sprinkle it over the top. Now you see how quick and easy that was, I mean this dinner is on the table in a matter of just a few minutes. Don't wait to dig in. It's delicious. The sauce is what makes this dish. It is a little bit of garlic, a little bit of everything in there, the basil really brings it to life. I just love this dish guys, hope you enjoy it. And if you love Mexican food, you're going to want to try my beef tostada here. That beef is so tender. This is oh so delicious with that sour cream, avocado, cheese and dressing. Don't miss it.

Hand-in-hand is an evidence-based, country-led and country-owned initiative of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations to accelerate agricultural transformation and sustainable rural development, to eradicate poverty and end hunger and all forms of malnutrition. Hand-in-hand has brought together FAO experts from across multiple domains, from animal health to trade and markets, resulting in a collaboration of over 20 units. The data has been sourced not only from inside FAO, but also from our partners, as well as public data providers from across the UN, NGOs, private sector and space agencies. So far, we've assembled over a million geospatial layers and thousands of statistics series with 4,000 metadata records. One example of the data sources used is the Water Productivity Open Access Portal WAPR from Aquastat, which uses remote sensing technologies to monitor and report on agricultural water productivity. This includes agricultural systems at risk such as human pressure on land and water, and information on irrigation areas around the world, also made available through FAO's Water Productivity Open Access Portal. Integration of geospatial data from the gridded livestock in the world database, GLW and Empress Eye. This allows you to compare human population density to distribution of cattle from GLW and Rift Valley Fever Disease Events from Empress Eye. Access GLW data to compare the distribution of cattle on the left to chickens on the right. This allows you to easily compare livestock density between two species. Aggregated global production is made available from FAO staff. FAO staff provides free access to food and agriculture data for over 245 countries and territories and covers all FAO regional groups, from 1961 to the most recent year available. Integration with GAZ and MAPSPAN provide disaggregated crop production data, allowing you to view maize production in 2010, using GAZ and MAPSPAN for disaggregated data on your left and FAO stat national data on your right. Access fisheries and aquaculture geospatial information, such as aquatic species distribution, which allow, for example, to predict the extent of fisheries exploiting Caribbean rough shark in red or the Caribbean reef octopus in yellow. The GSOC map is the first global soil organic carbon map ever produced through a consultative and participatory process involving member countries. The Global Soil Partnership then gathered all national maps to produce the final product. Information from National Forest Monitoring Systems has been integrated to visualize distribution of forest resources with other geospatial data such as the road network. This allows separation of undisturbed areas that have high conservation value from accessible areas that are more suitable for restoration or production. Adding geospatial information on further indicators, such as change in forest cover, will support also monitoring of progress towards the SDG-15 life on land. The platform includes integration with data from other organizations, such as the World Wildlife Fund. Here you can view eco-regions. Integration with World Bank data also provides access to many new data sets and information. For example, the Global Roads Inventory Project, which is a harmonized global data set of approximately 60 geospatial data sets on road infrastructure. View changes in infrastructure services from 2008 to 2019. For example, stable lights. The platform also makes available climate data, such as precipitation trend analysis. This is made available from Climate Hazards Group infrared precipitation with station data, 0.05 degree resolution satellite imagery within C2 station data, to create gridded rainfall time series for trend analysis and seasonal drought monitoring. Last but not least, you can view the crop phenology grid data from the Agricultural Stress Index System. This is FAU's Global Agricultural Drought Monitoring and Early Warning System, which simulates the analysis of remote sensing experts and simplifies the interpretation of satellite data for a broader audience. Next steps for hand-in-hand. The initiative aims to bring together the most sophisticated tools available, including advanced geospatial modeling and analytics, to identify the biggest opportunities to raise the incomes and reduce inequities and vulnerabilities of rural populations, who constitute the vast majority of the world's poor. The team is currently working on integrating new data sets and creating country and domain-specific evidence-based case studies to improve targeting and tailoring of policy interventions, innovation, finance and investment, and institutional reform.
