I will be transitioning over to a new official account for @Save_Children’s CEO. Please follow me at @SaveCEO_Intl for updates on Save the Children’s work to ensure all children survive, learn and are protected.
Children born in 2020 will face almost 3 times more river floods and crop failure than their grandparents. The #climatecrisis is affecting children's futures.
We must act now.
Ameen* is 12-year-old Syrian boy, fighting to continue to learn despite armed conflict & #COVID19. The education of millions of children like him are also at stake.
Tomorrow with @childreninwar @UNOCHA @ICRC & others, I'll be asking leaders to step up & #SaveOurEducation
Even before this crisis, humanitarian aid to #Afghanistan was critically low, and millions of people were in desperate need of life-saving help.
But now the situation is getting far, far worse.
We urgently need governments attending #UNGA to take action now.
When children speak, we must listen.
Thousands of you joined our #100DaysofAction to #SaveourEducation
Together,we have moved 🌍leaders to
✋Pledge over $4BN for education
👏Prioritise #education in budgets
👂Listen to children
My #FridayFeeling of celebration.
We're facing the biggest hunger crisis of the 21st century. In #Afghanistan, 2 million children are dependent on nutrition services to survive. And in #Yemen, 10.3 million children are facing food shortages.
Leaders at #UNGA must act before we fall deeper into disaster. Join me.
At the #UNFSS2021 I reminded🌍leaders that #gender & gender-transformative approaches must be at the centre of efforts to improve nutrition. We must change the way we think about nutrition & gender equality, put girls and women at the centre of dialogues & decision making. #UNGA
Education is on the brink of collapse in countries around the world due to factors like:
🦠 COVID-19
🏫 Attacks on schools
🌎 The climate crisis
The time to act is now. At #UNGA, we'll be asking world leaders to step up and take action to #SaveOurEducation. Join us.
I had the honour to participate in the #AnticipatoryAction event by @UNOCHA. We cannot eliminate all threats to children’s rights to survival, education & protection but we can work collectively to stop predictable crises destroying children’s futures.
#InvestInHumanity
Look forward to chairing this inter-generational dialogue with children & decision-makers on 8 Sept 2PM BST.
We'll celebrate children who participated in #100DaysofAction & discuss how to Build Forward Better #education systems. Sign up: zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_… #SaveourEducation
