Keeping our 🇺🇳 personnel healthy means that we can stay on the ground, deliver & protect others. It also reduces the strain on local health infrastructures. The @UN System-wide #COVID19 Vaccination Programme continues to vaccinate staff, their families and partners around the 🌍
Thanks to the @UN 🇺🇳 System-wide COVID Vaccination Programme, led by our Supply Chain Management team, our global clients are getting access to life-saving COVID-19 services, care, and supplies💉😷🏥 Learn more here: un.org/en/coronavirus/vaccin… @CFSaundersUN #UnitedNations #COVID19
We must protect our peacekeepers so they can protect the vulnerable populations they serve. In April 2021, @UN_CAR 🇨🇫 was the first UN Peacekeeping mission to receive #COVID19 vaccines. Vaccination helps interrupt the chain of transmission in CAR 👉🏾 bit.ly/3Bp8qIo

#NobelPeacePrize The decision of the Norwegian Committee comes as progress in defeating global hunger is being reversed - mainly because of conflict. This puts the struggle of the 690 million people who go to bed hungry at the centre of world attention.

In 2018 Sweden took the initiative to a Security Council resolution underlining the link btw conflict & threat of famine, condemning starving as a method of warfare & demanding humanitarian access. Today’s #NobelPeacePrice is also a recognition of this landmark resolution.

Today we celebrate the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples. The voice of indigenous people needs to be heard! Recently #UN75, visited “the hidden village” in Kribi, Cameroon, to listen to the voice of the pygmy community on the world they want. #IndigenousDay
