The humanitarian emergency in the #HornOfAfrica is not over.
Already weakened communities face yet another year of severe hardship. 

With your support, we can help them.

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

Five years ago today, the @UN Security Council passed a historic resolution and condemned the use of hunger as a weapon of war.

But conflict and hunger continue to skyrocket. An unprecedented 43M people face famine worldwide.

Peace > Power. #UNSC2417

Russia’s war in Ukraine is being felt around the world. It threatens a global hunger crisis we can’t afford.
Meeting with @WFPChief, we discussed this and how Canada can help find real solutions to strengthen food systems.

“Women are bearing the brunt of hunger in Afghanistan,” says the @WFP’s Mary-Ellen McGroarty. “I meet many young women who are the only breadwinner in the family, and can’t go to work. It is absolutely heartbreaking.”

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

People are dying of hunger in #Tigray. Time is running out. We need unfettered humanitarian access to scale up and avert a catastrophe. ALL parties must make good on this commitment NOW.

The World Food Programme works in the most remote locations with enormous courage, determination and competence to serve the most vulnerable.

Warm congratulations to @WFPChief David Beasley and the amazing staff of the @WFP on being awarded this year's #NobelPeacePrize!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

#COVID19 has exposed the lie that free markets can deliver healthcare for all, the fiction that unpaid care work isn't work, the delusion that we live in a post-racist world.

We are all floating on the same sea, but some are in superyachts & others clinging to drifting debris.

[Germany in the United Nations @GermanyUN]

Why is there a Robot at the @GermanyUN ?

Today, together with @WFPInnovation we hosted an event on innovation and technology in humanitarian response. New tech is essential in order to react to growing humanitarian needs and to ensure accountability and monitoring. @WFPGovts

With Canadian 🇨🇦e-cards, Syrian refugee families receive US$27 per person each month to buy food from @WFP grocery stores. We are grateful to donors like @CanadaDev, who provide hope to Syrian families.

Sheela is 'Wild Wild Country's' anti-hero, not its villain.

Let's hope this encourages more UN agencies to invest in gender parity! Not just at the top but across the spectrum... https://t.co/C01qHBZK8L

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Proud to announce my strategy on #genderparity. I have appointed 17 women, 15 men to senior management; we can & must reach #50/50.
