    The United Nations is facing significant funding shortfalls that are limiting its ability to deliver critical humanitarian and development work. Delayed and reduced contributions from member states are impacting everything from peacekeeping missions to emergency aid, forcing agencies to scale back efforts and prioritize certain crises. At the same time, rising geopolitical tensions are making global cooperation more difficult, further complicating the UN’s work. These challenges also impact FAWCO’s UN engagement.

    Join our session to hear FAWCO UN Team members share their experiences and ideas for moving forward.

    U40 Presents: Understanding Fertility Today: Biology, Trends, and Proactive Planning

     

    Wednesday, May 27, 2026, 7–8:00 pm CET

    U40 Fertility Graphic

    So much has changed in the world of fertility treatments, but much has remained the same! While access to information has expanded, so has misinformation, making it harder to know what truly matters.

    Join us on May 27 at 7 pm CET or June 2 at 1 pm CET to understand the modern fertility roadmap and learn how to plan ahead with confidence.

    Format: The session will include a talk and Q&A session by Dr Veronica Ventura, a member of AWC Bern.

    And remember: 40 is just a number and a mindset – anyone is welcome to join us!

    Dr. Veronica Ventura is an American-trained gynecologist. After earning her degrees from UC Davis, Tulane University and Harvard, she served seven years in the US Army, with assignments in Tacoma, Washington, Colorado Springs and South Korea. Following her military service, she practiced for 4 years in Tacoma, Washington and later for 17 years in Singapore, where she founded an NGO in Cambodia to train rural nurses. Dr. Ventura also contributed to humanitarian efforts during the Ebola crisis and in Somali refugee camps. Now residing in Interlaken, Switzerland, she focuses on volunteer work and renovating a historic home.
