Today, I visited one of the Toyokana “Let’s Listen to Each Other” spaces in #Kinshasa—created with and for girls.

A sanctuary of hope, strength & healing. Their courage in standing up to sexual violence is inspiring.

In #Gaza, children are not victims of a natural disaster, “they are being starved, bombed and displaced,” says @UNICEF’s @TedChaiban having returned recently from the war-ravaged enclave.

Thanks to @Gavi’s generous support, 250 health facilities in Uganda will be powered in their entirety by solar energy, improving the quality & coverage of primary health care services, including immunization and #MNCH: thus helping deliver better health outcomes for communities.

[UNICEF Somalia @unicefsomalia]

Partnering to Empower Adolescent Girls! Today marks the last day of UNICEF’s 4-day training of 6 partner organisations. This will equip them to roll out the 'Girl Shine - Adolescent Girls Lifeskills Curriculum' across Somalia; thanks to support from @BMZ_Bund German Cooperation.

[UN Humanitarian @UNOCHA]

No one should be forced to risk their life to eat.

Every day, @UN teams collect critical supplies from Gaza’s crossings, bringing them to those struggling to survive.

But movement is often delayed, and desperate crowds who gather to offload, are met with gunfire.

Zahra now has water in her home so she can go to school instead of fetching water daily for her family. Thanks to our donors & partners, @UNICEFAfg has provided clean water to over 4 million people in the past 10 years through durable water supply systems. https://t.co/BGGBFJIfLn

[UNICEF Mali @unicefmali]

Forum theatre is much more than a show — it’s a mirror to society. A space where voices rise and awareness is awakened.

In Timbuktu, Aminata Garba uses it as a tool for transformation. One evening, the play tells the story of Aïcha, a young girl forced to drop out of school for an arranged marriage. Emotions run high. Eyes meet. Voices are heard.
supported by @AmbCanMali through the NAFAMA programme, the event was more than just entertainment.

UNICEF is concerned about an outbreak of #Mpox in #Mozambique, with 17 positive cases reported in Niassa province and 132 suspected cases across multiple provinces. UNICEF is supporting Government efforts to control the outbreak and provide treatment to those who test positive.

[UNICEF Palestine @UNICEFpalestine]

Against all odds, this month 1,730 high school students in #Gaza sat for Tawjihi (final) exams. 93% passed🎓.

In August, 79,000 more students will take exams online.

@UNICEF has supported 500 @PalestineMoE teachers from the #WestBank to give online classes for Gaza students.

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

“The creeping annexation of the #WestBank is illegal. The destruction of #Gaza is intolerable.” They must stop.

At the closing of the #2states4peace conference, the UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres called for an end to policies causing immense human suffering — and for a return to a path toward peace.

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

Amid starvation and bombardments, there's another massive threat to children in Gaza: the lack of clean water.

UNICEF’s Ricardo Pires outlines how we are supporting the production of safe water for children and families.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The latest @theIPCinfo alert confirms what we have feared:

Gaza is on the brink of famine.

The facts are in — and they are undeniable.

Palestinians in Gaza are enduring a humanitarian catastrophe of epic proportions.
This is not a warning.
It is a reality unfolding before our eyes.

The trickle of aid must become an ocean. Food, water, medicine, and fuel must flow in waves and without obstruction.

This nightmare must end.

Ending this worst-case scenario will take the best efforts of all parties -- now.

We need an immediate and permanent humanitarian ceasefire; the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages; and full, unfettered humanitarian access across Gaza.

This is a test of our shared humanity – a test we cannot afford to fail.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The only realistic, just & sustainable solution for peace in the Middle East is two States - Israel & Palestine - living side-by-side in peace & security.

Let us, at long last, choose the path of peace.

Not as a concept, but as a commitment.

Not as a dream, but as a reality.

For Palestinians.
For Israelis.
For the people of the Middle East & the world.

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

Gaza faces the severe risk of famine as food consumption and nutrition indicators have reached their worst levels since the conflict began.

An estimated 80,000 children are at high risk of #cholera as outbreaks spread across 12 countries in West and Central Africa.

See how @UNICEF is responding to ensure no child is left behind.

[UNICEF MENA - يونيسف الشرق الأوسط وشمال إفريقيا @UNICEFmena]

These deaths are unconscionable - and could have been prevented.

The UN-led humanitarian response must be allowed to function fully through unfettered aid access to children in need.

Statement: https://t.co/DW3UKc2hx5

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Let’s be clear: Statehood for the Palestinians is a right, not a reward.

The only realistic, just, and sustainable solution is two States – Israel & Palestine – living side-by-side in peace.

I urge the international community to take urgent & concrete steps to make it real.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Let’s be clear: The creeping annexation of the occupied West Bank is illegal.
It must stop.

The wholesale destruction of Gaza is intolerable.
It must stop.

Unilateral actions that would forever undermine the two-state solution are unacceptable.
They must stop.

[Uta Boellhoff @BoellhoffU]

Great to connect with our amazing #UReporters in #Kinshasa! 💬👏

Their commitment to raising awareness on vaccination, cholera prevention & breastfeeding is truly inspiring.
