In Yemen, we are witnessing another layer of suffering being added to one of the world’s longest and most complex humanitarian crises. Today I asked the @UN Security Council to allow Yemen's children to build a future in safety. savethechildren.net/news/sav……
As we thank Angela Ahrendts for six years of outstanding leadership and service, I'm delighted to welcome @FilippoGrandi as our next Chair starting Jan 2027. His deep humanitarian expertise and unwavering commitment to vulnerable children come at a critical moment for our mission

Today is 150 years since the birth of our founder Eglantyne Jebb. A pioneer of child rights, she declared every war is a war on children. Today more children than ever are living in conflict zones. We have spokespeople available who can talk about the challenges facing children.
In Yemen last week I met Othman, 16, who lost his leg to an UXO collecting scrap metal. Landmines/UXOs have killed more children this yr than all 2025. We urgently need more investment to support children like Othman savethechildren.net/news/yem…

Productive discussion with H.E. Minister Haneen Sayed on ensuring displaced people across Lebanon receive the support they need. Strong coordination between @Save_Children, national partners, and the Government of Lebanon is essential as humanitarian needs continue to rise.
Today I had the pleasure to meet Lebanese President Joseph Aoun & discussed the staggering humanitarian toll of this war on children. With 1 mln pple displaced & 100+ children killed, the situation is critical. There's urgent need of safe access to shelter, education, protection.
All children have the right to access a safe education, and schools should always be a haven for children – not a battlefield. Every effort must now be made to prevent further escalation in the Middle East. Every war is a war on children. @Save_Children
UNIQLO is supporting our humanitarian responses around the world & Youth Empowerment Projects in Cambodia, Bangladesh, Thailand, Madagascar, Uganda through the proceeds from PEACE FOR ALL Campaign.
I visited the UNIQLO Tokyo Office & discussed our future collaboration.
PRESS CONFERENCE-In Sudan in the past week I saw the devastation of nearly 3 yrs of war & the impact on children, many missing school for 500 days. Sudan is facing one of the worst education emergencies. This is a crisis in a crisis. All children deserve to learn & a future.
As we enter 2026, children globally are facing their greatest levels of need ever. We can change that. We have to reshape our systems so that, no matter how the world changes, we can put children first, always, everywhere. Read how here. aje.io/0ga0ox via @AJEnglish
