In 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake in 🇭🇹 Haiti killed 222,000 people and left millions homeless. But in 2012 just two people died when a 7.6 magnitude earthquake hit 🇨🇷 Costa Rica. Why? 🏗️ Strict building codes. Resilient infrastructure saves lives.👇 #BuildingResilience

No one is born to hate. Hate is learned — and it can be unlearned. On this International Day for Countering Hate Speech, we say #NoToHate and stand for a world where love, dignity, and inclusion leave no room for hatred.

Floods are becoming more frequent, more intense and are impacting more lives. Resilience is no longer optional. It must shape how we plan, invest, and respond to protect lives and support economies, The signal is clear:  worldenvironmentday.global/ #NowForClimate #WorldEnvironmentDay

Water is a basic human right. Yet across the 🌍, women still don’t have an equal say in how it's collected & managed, & they consistently bear the highest cost to obtain it. Here's how UNDP is working to ensure fair water access for all: go.undp.org/SNV #WorldWaterDay
