Thx Sigrid Kaag sharing ur pain, frustration & anger, calling for accountabilities to end the #Gaza war. Even more striking on a day of the brutal killings by #Israel of @aljazeera.com journalists, five courageous lives ended. There are no words. stop the killing, stop the war #Gaza.

Just try to catch Theroux’s documentary The Settlers if you can… a piece of incredible and courageous journalism… and a story to listen to, however hard and depressing it is.

My @usnews.com op-ed on the UN funding crisis: "How to Save the UN from #Trump; Washington is withholding billions of dollars it owes the UN -- Europe must step in & lead."

@hrw.org: The UN should cut costs, but wealthy democracies can also find ways to pay more.

"This is a quiet photo that speaks loudly," said World Press Photo executive director Joumana El Zein Khoury. "It tells the story of one boy, but also of a wider war that will have an impact for generations."

These aren’t just numbers in budget cuts or efficiency gains, these are actual children’s lives at stake… picking apart years of progress made #ForEveryChild. #childrights will be under threat, needs will go up and the most vulnerable left behind. 😡

#Sudan crisis has again dropped down in the media attention after a short flare up…. Thx @unocha.org for bringing these stories. Voices must be heard, the world cannot give up on Sudan, we simply cannot look away.
The trauma of 2 years of brutal war runs deep for the women of #Sudan.

Many have lost children, had their families torn apart and endured unimaginable violence.

"We must keep strong and create a new future for ourselves."

Yesterday was my last day with @unicef.org Over the years I saw beautiful stories of success, children given a better start in life. These stories of success are now under threat, we are at risk of losing all the progress we made for #children over the past decades.

32yrs with UN/ICEF, more than just a job.

Everyday I felt inspired by the children & young people I met. Dancing in a classroom in Vietnam, meeting the young 🎬 cast or help with polio vaccination in India, or learn about benefits of and electric stove in Mongolia.

Everyday was special @unicef.org

If others are forced to step back, who's going to stay for children?

I AM. #ForEveryChild
Are you?
The challenges facing aid organizations worldwide are many. The reasons to persist are more.
