Investing in women benefits all of society says Alexandre Leveque. Development Canada - fully agree!

The alliance on gender responsive and inclusive recovery of Ukraine was just launched at #URC2024. UNFPA is a proud and committed founding signatory!

Please support Ukraine and our life saving sexual and reproductive health and gender based violence work there in whatever way you can. It makes a real difference in the lives of the most vulnerable women and girls in Ukraine.

#URC2024 is a wrap. Heartbreaking to hear about the continued destruction and suffering - heartwarming to see the courage, resilience, determination and creativity of the Ukrainian people and the support from everyone rallying for Ukraine UNFPA among them. Stronger together!

We heard heartbreaking stories of girls and women survivors of violence who received health, psychosocial, referral support and temporary lodging in a victim support room supported by UNFPA in Tajikistan EU in Tajikistan Spotlight Initiative ❤️

The need for resilient and inclusive recovery in Ukraine remains critical. At the #URC24 in Berlin, UNFPA reaffirmed its commitment to supporting #Ukraine's recovery, highlighting the role of gender-responsive and inclusive actions in rebuilding the nation.

A wonderful start of my first official visit to Armenia with UNFPA in Armenia meeting a very dynamic UN Armenia team and discussing on #DemographicResilience and the importance to invest in #HumanCapital through #GenderEquality, #SRHR , #YouthEmpowerment #HealthyAging .

A great pleasure to meet with Amb Abdrashov yesterday to discuss the strong potential for further strengthening of regional collaboration in Central Asia.

Pleased to be back at an United Nations ESCAP organized event - the 8th North/Central Asia Forum on SDG Implementation taking place in Almaty. Focus is on SDG 3, 5, 8, 14 & 17. Will speak tomorrow on how all these are linked from a demographic resilience perspective #demres! Stay tuned!

Main focus of Regional Director Florence Bauer's visit to #Armenia this week: the new Demographic Strategy, developed with UNFPA support. At presentation event w/ Government of Armenia & int'l partners, she welcomed prioritization of #HumanCapital as key for stronger #DemographicResilience.

Just spoke about the status of SDG5 at United Nations ESCAP forum on SDG implementation in North and Central Asia. My key messages: 1) we need to invest to get more data on SDG5 and 2) we need to address social and gender norms within a broader understanding of demographic trends and change

A critical milestone for Armenia - an inspiration for other countries in the region and beyond!
