Thank you for electing me, we made history together.
Happy International Youth Day. The quality of education is best defined with the help of our youth and students. But if we do not speak up it will decided for us take this survey and tell the world what education should look like forms.cloud.microsoft/pages/…
Youth voices are not only important. They are indispensable to the future of #Education.
Building on TES+4, @UNESCO is inviting young people to help shape the next chapter of learning through the Global Youth Survey, ensuring that youth perspectives are reflected in the #EducationBeyond2030 agenda.
Listen to SDG 4 Youth & Student Network Representatives @CSW_JA and @Blessingmentor, and take part here: unes.co/ua20gy

So grateful to speak at @ConcordiaSummit about those affected by the 110 ongoing conflicts and environmental degradation/climate change. I challenged the leaders to stop the lip service that they believe in youth but to put their money where their belief is.

I was just on @TvjNewscentre 7pm news discussing this and I argued that violence/abuse is not discipline and I endorse the Gov's efforts to protect our children. However we also need meaningful psychosocial support for our parents AND children from multiple sources.
