🚨 EU negotiators have reached a political agreement on Omnibus I.
If approved, Omnibus I would weaken the duties big companies have to identify and address risks in their supply chains, risks that fall hardest on workers, small suppliers and frontline communities.

According to the EIGE 2025 Gender Equality Index, domestic violence remains widespread and underreported across the EU – a reminder of why our voices and actions matter.

Fossil fuels grabbed the spotlight at #COP30, while the conditions to phase them out – rich countries moving first and backing others – were sidelined.
That’s how climate ambition is turned against those who did least to cause the crisis, and the Paris Agreement is weakened.

At #COP30 the EU poses as champion of a #fossilfuel fuel phase-out.
But it doesn’t need others to move first: it funds it, burns it, banks the profits, then points the finger South.
That’s not climate ambition – it’s demagoguery.

Week two at #COP30, the EU is asking everyone to step up climate action.
But if it won’t step up on fairness – more support for those who did least to cause the crisis – its calls will ring hollow.
No fair share, no real Paris ambition.
