President Robert Mugabe as WHO Goodwill Ambassador for NCDs in Africa. As a result, I have decided to rescind the appointment. > I have listened carefully to all who have expressed their concerns and heard the different issues that they have raised. I have also consulted with the Government of Zimbabwe and we have concluded that this decision is in the best interests of the World Health Organization. > It is my aim to build a worldwide movement for global health. This movement must work for everyone and include everyone. > For me, what is important is to build political leadership and create unity around bringing health to all, based on WHO’s core values. > I remain firmly committed to working with all countries and their leaders to ensure that everyone has access to the healthcare they need. > We must build bridges that bring us together and help us move forward in our quest to achieve universal health coverage. > I thank everyone who has voiced their concerns and shared their thoughts. I depend on constructive debate to help and inform the work I have been elected to do.
