Fantastic discussion on the gaps and importance of promoting #racialequality in the United Nations system on the first days of the #SummitOfTheFuture Action Days. Check out the Plataforma CIPÓ & Blue Smoke report with great recs for making the UN more representative for all.

#SummitOfTheFuture; #PactfortheFuture Fifth Draft. Enough Watering Down. With 24 hours to go, some States are trying to further weaken the text and pathway to strengthen multilateralism. Depressing. Predictable.

Proposed language from Russia at the United Nations and friends to add to the United Nations Pact for the Future opening 👀 Basically says "We can all ignore this document and António Guterres should write a report about why we can ignore it, and also why the UN is a bit pointless." Tactically clever, TBH.

“No place is more dangerous for women than their own home” “Small arms and light weapons pose an acute risk in gender-based violence in and beyond conflicts” “One or the most important components of this is to support localized, grassroots, community violence reduction efforts”

Always in awe of Costa Rica @ the UN’s Amb. Maritza Chan, a strong woman advancing intl cooperation as necessary to address the Triple Planetary Crisis, incl at United Nations #SummitOfTheFuture event on “The Critical Role of #HumanRights in Realizing the #PactfortheFuture” #environment #climate
