Thanks, follow the money. Check this out. http://archive.is/5Szk5 “Yet in this difficult time, we seize moments of hope and opportunities for positive disruptions. The past year has seen the appointment of strong new leaders at three key organizations. In May, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was named Director-General of the World Health Organization, and set about putting together the WHO’s most diverse leadership team ever — a reflection of his belief that “we need top talent, gender equity and geographical diversity to deliver.” He brings on-the-ground experience to this role, having been the architect of the remarkable progress in health and family planning in Ethiopia when he was Minister of Health. In October, Dr. Natalia Kanem, a great champion of women and young people, was named Executive Director of UNFPA, succeeding the esteemed Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin. She brings to this position expertise from her days at the Ford Foundation and her time in the field as UNFPA Representative in Tanzania. And just last month, Alvaro Bermejo was named Director-General of IPPF; he brings to this role his expertise honed through more than twenty years in global health and development, including serving as Executive Director of the International HIV/AIDS Alliance and Executive Director of the Survive & Thrive program for maternal and child health at the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF).”
