Norwegian NGOs active in Gaza & the West Bank expressed today our full support for @UNLazzarini and @UNRWA, which remain under politically-motivated & extremist attacks. There is no substitute for UNRWA in their essential support for the besieged civilian population in Gaza.

Det er positivt at @Regjeringen øker støtten til Gaza og Ukraina, men denne støtten må komme som friske midler. @Stortinget må nå sikre økt støtte til neglisjerte kriser, slik som i Sudan, Sør-Sudan og Sahel hvor millioner av mennesker lider i stillhet. flyktninghjelpen.no/nyheter/…

While climate change is listed as a leading cause of the rise in global hunger, there are big gaps in weather observations & early warning services. Info that would help local farmers better prepare themselves for extreme weather. @NORCAPweb @NRC_EAY aljazeera.com/gallery/2023/1…

For farmers across the globe, access to reliable weather and climate data is critical in adapting to a new normal.

The greening of NRC: the solar panel roof at our office in Western Niger has cut electricity bills from USD 1000 to 25 per month and done away with the noisy and polluting generators. It will soon have saved us more than the investment. ⁦@NORCAPweb⁩ made it happen.
