"To young entrepreneurs: you live in the best of times. Always be suspicious of those who remind us of the good old days. They are probably suffering from memory loss... Your generation is the smartest that has ever lived." - Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, Vice President @AsoRock #GenUnlimited

Breastfeeding is a unique right of every newborn that gives him or her the best start in life and lays the foundation for survival, good health and development. #StartStrong #EarlyMomentsMatter #WBW2019

Optimal nutrition provided by exclusive breastfeeding in the first 6 months along with nurturing, care and stimulation strengthens a child's brain development with positive impacts that endure a lifetime. #StartStrong #EarlyMomentsMatter #WBW2019

Lack of family friendly policies is an important barrier to optimal exclusive breastfeeding practices - Empower Parents to Enable Breastfeeding. #EarlyMomentsMatter #WBW2019 #StartStrong

#ThrowbackThursday to children enjoying UNICEF-supplied milk in Greece in 1951. When we invest in children’s nutrition, we invest in the bodies, brains and futures of tomorrow’s citizens.

Honoured to present my credentials at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs - Pakistan today & begin my journey as UNICEF Representative in Pakistan. I first came during the 2010 floods & was deeply moved by the people's warmth & resilience. Proud to return to lead UNICEF’s mission for every child.

As a strong proponent of #breastfeeding, I am delighted to be part of the strong momentum under inspiring leadership making it easier for every mother to breastfeed their child and give them the healthiest start in life as my first official representation in Pakistan.

I am struck by the sheer force of the torrential waters that are pounding communities with huge boulders, causing massive destruction and upending lives. May children and families be spared from further devastation..

It was a delight to welcome our energetic Youth Advocate Taqwa Ahmad and her family to UNICEF. Her passion for inclusion and child rights is truly inspiring. We discussed how young voices can drive change so every child in Pakistan has the chance to learn, grow & succeed.
