Young children explore the world with their hands, their mouths and their bare feet. Lead-contaminated dust and soil can travel from floors and surfaces to little hands and into growing bodies.

Protecting children starts by preventing exposure at the source.

Hot one minute, freezing the next. Wide awake at 2am, running on empty by 3pm. Brain fog.
Sound familiar?

Menopause can touch every part of your well-being: physical, emotional, mental and social. Symptoms are different for every woman and can include hot flushes, broken sleep, mood changes, vaginal dryness, foggy thinking and low energy.

Start keeping a note of what you’re feeling and how it shows up in your day. It makes that conversation with your health provider so much easier.

It's International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week

Lead exposure was linked to more than 3.5 million deaths globally in 2023, largely from heart disease.

Menopause is a natural stage of life, yet so many of us walk into it without knowing what to expect. In Sweden, a national survey found that one in three women didn’t know enough about menopause as they entered it.

The best time to learn the signs is before they show up. Look for reliable information, and talk openly with your health provider, your friends and the women in your family. Chances are, they’ve been wondering too.

Self-care is also about increasing access to essential health services.

When it comes to your sexual and reproductive health, it could mean access to:
- HIV self-testing,
- Self-testing for pregnancy
- and more.

A big part of self-care is also about having the tools and the right to make decisions about your own body — without barriers.

Very encouraging to see that World Health Organization (WHO) scored the highest level of trust among all tracked international institutions in this survey by Rockefeller Foundation and Focal Data.

These findings underscore that people continue to value collective action and recognize that health security depends on countries working together to prevent, prepare for and respond to shared threats.
