Summary
➡ SettingBrushFires talks about how countries are making a legal promise to protect future people from big sicknesses like pandemics. They all agree on what they want to do, but they’re still figuring out how to do it. There are some disagreements, but they have enough time to work things out and make a final decision.
Transcript
Legally binding agreement to protect future generations from the impacts of pandemics. There is much agreement between member states on the objectives of the agreement. Now they need to agree on how to achieve those objectives. Areas of disagreement remain, but there is still enough time for countries to find common ground and finalize a strong agreement in time for the World Health assembly in nine weeks. It’s doable. We’re encouraged that member states are committed to meeting that deadline, and we’re encouraged that communities, youth organizations, faith based groups, health workers, current and former political leaders, and others are raising their voices to demand a strong agreement.
