Everything you ever wanted to know (or wished you didn't know) about how pandemics affect violence against women and children cgdev.org/publication/pa… A new study by @a_peterman, @alina_potts, @modonnell1231, Thompson, @awakenvision, @smoertelt, & van Gelder

Why is the question “what about the men” only asked in sessions on gender equality & why only to women panellists? Why don’t the men who ask this question take responsibility to raise it with other men in all male panels or male dominated discussions on NCD or health financing?

How did STRIVE organise ourselves in working groups to tackle #hivdrivers ? Read + share our summary of 8 years' work, with hyperlinks to resources in deeper detail: strive.lshtm.ac.uk/resources/addr…

So inspirational to hear about all of the work that has been done on #HIVdrivers over the past 8 years!

Dr. Ravi Prakash from @KHPT_BLR explains how the Samata intervention to reduce #childmarriage in India targeted girls, boys, communities, and schools to change norms linked to girls' education.

"We need to resist the tendency to assume there is one norm for one practice." For example, there are many universal #socialnorms around girls purity and marriageability that influence #childmarriage. -Dr. Ben Cislaghi #HIVdrivers

1 in 3 women and girls will experience violence during their lifetime. - Dr. Tara Beattie presents on #violence and #HIV @LSHTM #HIVdrivers

Prof Janet Seeley @LSHTM @AHRItweets - biomedical interventions are not enough - we must understand and address the factors shaping vulnerability #hivdrivers

Thanks to @AnneStangl, @hivdrivers for an inspiring thought-provoking day. I'm left with two thoughts: 1. SCALE: how do we get small successful pilots to scale so we can make big change? 2. how do we connect U.S. HIV work w/ int'l? #hivdrivers

@AlexaYakubovich @SaME_LSHTM @AvniNAmin @leesahoo @GLDiTanna Hi Alexa, I'm not sure actually. @PRBdata hosted this event so maybe they can tell you more. Re: WHO guidelines on Health sector response to violence against women- thats all public and I remember the reports were out in 2014 or 2015

So happy to hear @AvniNAmin talk about WHO guidelines on responding to violence against women (and the evidence behind it) #vaw - one of the rare instances where SRs have been used as they should be. Renewed motivation to update and publish these reviews! @leesahoo @GLDiTanna
