🙏🏾 HE Dr. J Geng Akech Ministry of Youth and Sports 🇸🇸, Amb Cecilia Adeng, Shoko Noda & Dominic Sam UN Development for a fruitful deep dive on ways to accelerate the political transition & inclusive, sustainable development in Africa’s youngest country.

👏🏾 to PNUD GABON, Primature de la République Gabonaise & Vice-Primature de la République Gabonaise. for launching the new Community Development Emergency Program #PUDC 🇬🇦

#PUDC is UN Development’s unique approach to working w/ gov & communities to swiftly provide access to basic infrastructure & social services in some of most remote areas

In fragile areas, we must do more than provide immediate aid. We need to rebuild communities by restoring schools, markets & supporting local gov.

This is at the ❤️ of UN Development’s #stabilization & emergency local dev, which I briefed Member States on, w/ UN Security USG Gilles Michaud.

.UN Development is committed to a world where #NeverAgain is not just a statement but a reality.

We joined today’s solemn gathering at @UN HQ to mark the 30th anniversary of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi in #Rwanda ( #Kwibuka30 ).
