Former First Lady Monica Geingos has arrived in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for the Global Council on Inequality, AIDS, and Pandemics meeting, held alongside the G20 Health Ministerial and other high-level discussions. 

Geingos, who serves as co-chair of the Council, joins a diverse group of leaders from academia, government, and civil society to address the structural inequalities that fuel pandemics like AIDS, Mpox, and COVID-19.

The Council meeting aims to drive policy change on the global stage by tackling the inequities that exacerbate health crises.
