In every crisis, women rise up to feed, to heal & to protect their communities.

On #WorldHumanitarianDay, we honour women like Lima, who dedicate their work to supporting Afghan women farmers, because gender equality is the foundation of food security and peace.

Unseasonable precipitation is a major climatic hazard in Afghanistan, triggering flash floods that impact farming and herding communities.

Recent flash floods hit districts in Wardak hard, impacting farmers like Ibrahim.

@FAO & local partners are responding to deliver essential animal vaccines to protect surviving livestock. This is vital amid a Foot-and-Mouth disease outbreak already threatening rural livelihoods.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I am deeply shocked that 2 @UNRWA schools were struck in less than 24 hours in Gaza.

Dozens of people – many women & children – were killed & injured as they were seeking safety in @UN premises.

I reaffirm that our premises are inviolable.

Women’s participation in aid delivery must continue.

Banning women from humanitarian work has immediate life-threatening consequences for all Afghans. Already, some time-critical programmes have stopped temporarily.
