Pleased to have met with União Europeia em Angola today to discuss our ongoing partnership. EU support as a key donor is crucial in promoting #SocialProtection and #DecentWork in the country. Together, we are making strides towards a brighter future for all Angolans.
Great to be involved with the United Nations Geneva Portail des Nations project. Looking forward to seeing the results when the new visitor experience is unveiled next summer.
Pleased to welcome Ambassador of Guatemala to the United Nations in Geneva, Ángela María Chávez Bietti, for her country's ratification of the @ILO Safe & Healthy Working Environment Convention. The ratification demonstrates Guatemala's commitment to promoting occupational safety & health.
In my statement to the ITUC-Africa // CSI-Afrique Conference of Women in Trade Unions, I emphasized the need for action to achieve gender equality. In particular, we need to ensure decent work for women, full participation in social dialogue & access to social protection. #ITUCAfricaWomen24
Global cooperation is key to ensure that the knowledge economy & #AI support genuine progress in human development and a future with greater #SocialJustice. The proposed Global Digital Compact, for discussion at the United Nations #SummitOfTheFuture would be a step in the right direction.
