Great point from @FruzsinaStraus that the different language and words we use in NGOs, @UN and private sector make it harder for us to collaborate. Events like @EAHSAfrica allow us to break down those barriers and learn each other’s language.

Although this is the last @EAHSAfrica panel of the day, it is not the least. Such good speakers on ensuring people and their rights stay at the center of our work and we do not launch programs for their own sake.
