Brilliant. Watch this...
We can’t ignore #ClimateChange any longer. Unless we end the excuses, we’ll be another species facing extinction.

We have seen some progress in the fight against #COVID19, but we still face a lost decade for development.
Reversing this trajectory requires:
Urgently closing the global vaccine gap.
Supporting countries on the brink of a debt crisis.
Overcoming the climate crisis.

The spread of #COVID19 has shaken economies, and people are beginning to question existing economic models. It is essential to bring back a conversation about universal basic income, and to make it a central part of the fiscal stimulus packages. My view:
