Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus: Humbled to be recognized with an Honorary Doctorate from University of Groningen

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus shared a post on LinkedIn:

“I was deeply honoured and humbled to be recognized with an Honorary Doctorate from University of Groningen, alongside Mariana Mazzucato, Gerrit Hiemstra and Kate Crawford.

I am especially pleased to receive this honour as the University of Groningen celebrates its 410th anniversary.

Keeping people healthy and preventing disease is one of the three key priorities in World Health Organization’s global strategy for the next four years, which our Member States will consider at WHA77 next week.

Together, for health for all.”
