Devastated that Mark Astarita died at the age of 64. Was privileged to work with Mark British Red Cross 🧡 A larger than life personality from whom I learnt so much. Rest in Peace!

Great to be part of diverse and energetic UN Development Coordination Regional Team for Africa led by Yacoub El-Hillo & Eskedar Nega and to participate in meeting with DCO leader Assistant SG Oscar Fernandez-Taranco

We were correct in continuing our support for UNRWA.

The @UN report by Catherine Colonna, positively assesses the organization’s neutrality and reinforces our decision. (1/2)

Investment into #education will accelerate #SDGs achievement! Thank you all speakers for great insights into how dream of connecting every school in Africa to the internet - and connecting each child to digital learning - might be turned into reality! ECA UNICEF Int’l Telecommunication Union

Thinking in particular of friends and colleagues in Gaza 🇵🇸, Sudan 🇸🇩, Lebanon 🇱🇧 and Nigeria 🇳🇬…

In 1994, one million children, women & men were killed in the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda.

We will never forget the victims.

Nor will we ever forget the bravery & resilience of those who survived, whose courage & willingness to forgive remain a burst of light & hope.

Thank you for incredible leadership, always putting “we the peoples” in the centre and so eloquently defending the global standards, norms and principles that are the reason why so many of us including myself signed up for this work. All the best for the future!

Insightful discussion today between UN Resident & Humanitarian Coordinator Nahla Valji & UN Development Coordination Office for Africa led by Yacoub El-Hilo about how best to support acceleration of #SDG achievements in Eritrea

Famine is imminent in Gaza.

The international community should hang its head in shame for failing to stop it.

Congratulations dear Oga of UN women affairs in Nigeria Beatrice Eyong - so well deserved!

Children in #Gaza are #NotATarget but they are:
💔Being killed & maimed
💔Being forcibly displaced
💔Being separated from parents
💔Being denied food & nutrition
💔Being denied access to education
💔Being denied access to health care
💔Being denied safe water & sanitation
