Grab your coffee and settle in

Dear John,
Happy Friday! We are sharing a new round of all things interesting, inspiring, and infuriating. As a reminder, this is a collection of content our team has been sharing amongst ourselves and thought might resonate with you too. Grab some coffee or tea and kick off your Friday with us!

Here are four recent things we think you’ll appreciate:
1. This week Ipas was at the international Women Deliver 2023 ([link removed]) conference in Rwanda. We're happy to have had the opportunity to speak on issues such as Universal Health Care and abortion ([link removed]) , the intersectionality of gender and climate change ([link removed]) and more. We also threw ourselves a little birthday party ([link removed]) . Happy 50th to us! 🥳

2. Speaking of Ipas's 50th, we're in good company. Check out some of the other cool things that got their start in 1973 ([link removed]) ! (Turns out we’re as old as a favorite version of one particular social justice icon. 🦊)

3. Also this week: birth control over the counter in the U.S.—finally!!! 🎉 At a time when reproductive rights are under attack, we're thrilled to celebrate this decision ([link removed]) .

4. Also in the category of "recent good news," the Miss Netherlands pageant has crowned its first openly trans woman. Congratulations to Rikkie Valerie Kollé ([link removed]) !
