Leaders of the future United Nations. Looking forward to listening to, and learning from, our young people as they gather for the United NationsECOSOC #YouthForum and share their ideas in preparation of the #SummitoftheFuture . Happy to welcome our own Youth delegate Emma Ósk Ragnarsdóttir Iceland at UN 🇮🇸

Had the honor of presiding over a debate in the majestic General Assembly Hall this week as Vice President of #UNGA78 . My first time since the gavel “Hammer of Thor” found its way back after a brief recovery in #Iceland . Needless to say, discipline and order prevailed!

In youth we trust. Had the honor and joy of engaging with students, including UNIS, in the #UNGA Hall on the ever important topic of #genderequality . Really good questions and discussions that kept me and my colleagues 🇸🇪Anna-Karin Eneström and 🇲🇹Vanessa Frazier 🧡 in check!

Had the privilege and immense joy of accompanying 🇮🇸 Minister Guðmundur Ingi Guðbrandsson on a visit to John F. Kennedy Jr. School in Queens to learn about #ProjectSearch and the amazing work done by faculty and students with special needs. The warmest welcome, the warmest smiles 🙏

Delighted to welcome Minister Guðmundur Ingi Guðbrandsson and the 🇮🇸 delegation to #CSW68 . Vital work ahead in advancing #genderequality and #SDG5 - and pushing back the pushback. Women rights are #HumanRights .

“I hope for women and girls around the world to be valued and respected equally, for who they are, what they represent and for all their potential. And not only on this day, but always and everywhere. Happy International Women’s Day” #IWD2024

It was a privilege to chair the ever growing #Nordic cooperation United Nations in 2023, and particularly pleasing to pass the baton over to 🇸🇪 Anna-Karin Eneström - a fellow #PRunner who will front the relay running towards our common goals in 2024 🇩🇰🇫🇮🇮🇸🇳🇴🇸🇪🇺🇳

Important information regarding the ongoing volcanic eruption in Iceland.

#Iceland 🇮🇸 has been developing a stronger partnership with UN Development in recent years, including on #GenderEquality and #ClimateAction . Happy to exchange views and ideas with Ulrika Modéer Iceland at UN 🇮🇸 and earlier meet with Achim Steiner in a Nordic setting.

Privileged to serve as Vice-President during #UNGA78 which allows me to occasionally preside over meetings in the majestic GA Hall. Today, I managed to conclude the debate in time - despite still missing the Hammer of Thor, which is temporarily recovering in #Iceland 🇮🇸

Proud to take seat on the Advisory Board on #GenderEquality and grateful to UN GA President for entrusting in me. Important work to do. Sleeves up!

The limping lot - day after the #TCSNYCMarathon . The #PRunners 🇺🇳 turned out in numbers and finished with pride. The best running mates 🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏻‍♀️
