Brilliant. Watch this...
We can’t ignore #ClimateChange any longer. Unless we end the excuses, we’ll be another species facing extinction. Join @UNDP and @FrankieTheDino, and let's take #ClimateAction before it’s too late: dontchooseextinction.com #DontChooseExtinction

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.

Read @UNDPasiapac director @kanniwignaraja's blog on the 3X wins that can lift the region out of the current crisis. On digital connectivity and renewable energy, as with a #COVID19 vaccine, "what's good for one is good for all 4.3b of us in Asia Pacific." buff.ly/2RGvLiN

This is the moment to put in place basic protections with universal reach for the most vulnerable, and do so in a sustainable manner, so we avoid the scramble after a shock hits, says Kanni Wignaraja, UNDP RBAP Director at a HLPF side event. Click youtu.be/1VZYcyFax7o

Start-ups in Asia-Pacific are driving entrepreneurship, innovation and job creation. In Malaysia, Thailand & Indonesia, MSMEs account for 70+% of jobs in private sector. Read why they must be part of the socioeconomic recovery from #COVID19: asiatimes.com/2020/06/protec… #Youthcolab

The world that emerges post-COVID-19 will be very different from the one before it, and how we respond and adapt to the changes during this period will impact the future direction of our planet. #COVID19 bit.ly/2M7bgZS
Our colleagues @UNDP_Pakistan have put in place innovative socio-economic measures to counter the impact of #COVID19. For example, we helped to launch a 24-hour tele-counselling service in Sindh province. Our Resident Representative @i_artaza explains: tribune.com.pk/story/2226525…

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: undp.org/content/undp/en/hom…

Looking outside. Spring is here. There is new life and bird sound and cleaner air. Just watched young person helping out an older, with kindness. Human spirits as with nature will rebound. And soar once again.
