@bunsenbernerbmd Not an American Bulldog, but Churchill the British Bulldog with Lucy the Labrador all the way from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Am presuming the American was bred from dogs like Churchill back in the day!

@laonev As a southern African girl she is missing Botswana!

[Emily Summers @Emily_Summers1]

Took a moment today to spend some time with my bestest girl, Lucy the #diplodog, to breath and be grateful for what I have

The jackals are teasing the #diplodogs this evening. And the windows will need a clean tomorrow!

Ending violence against children is a shared commitment for the 🇬🇧 and 🇧🇼 governments. This Symposium marks the start of the second phase of our joint work, supported by @UNICEFBotswana, to improve #childjustice.

Impactful work by 🇬🇧 Consular Teams and organizations supporting survivors of sexual assault to develop guides on victim support services in Southern African countries. The guides are for anyone to use and can all found under @LizzyWalker1 tweet below ⬇️

[Lizzy Walker @LizzyWalker1]

This year I’ve been privileged to meet many amazing orgs like @warbotswana, supporting survivors of sexual assault. The result is a public guide to victim support services for every country I work in. Targeted at 🇬🇧 nationals, but available for anyone who needs help.

Today, in Glasgow, Scotland, we proudly raise the flag of #Botswana to celebrate the remarkable achievements of Fareha and Anna, who graduated from @UofGSciEng. On this auspicious day of #INWED23, our heartfelt best wishes go out to them! 🎓🌍✨

Inspirational event hearing from women across Africa who broke the ceiling for women in diplomacy. Not least H.E Ambassador Kongit Sine-Giorgis. Role models matter! #WomenInDiplomacy

[UK in Ethiopia 🇬🇧 @UKinEthiopia]

Women matter in diplomacy.

A privilege for the 🇬🇧 team to join so many impressive women at an event hosted at the @mfaethiopia to mark International Day for Women in Diplomacy.

Thank you to all the inspiring panellists; and to @SahleWorkZewde for all your insights and wisdom.

[Emily Summers @Emily_Summers1]

@peekteam Very well deserved. I have strong memories of the work Andrew led during my time in Botswana. His passion for eye health and ensuring inclusion for all shone through!

[Emily Summers @Emily_Summers1]

Well done! You are a fantastic Ambassador for both @UofGlasgow and @CheveningFCDO. More power to you!

[Eunice☘️ @EuniceKira]

Huge shoutout and heartfelt appreciation to the wonderful folks at @UofGlasgow for the incredible gifts! 🙌✨

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for brightening my day with your kind gesture.

#WorldChangingGlasgow! #TeamUofG!

@conniekay21 @jduhautbedos @netflix @SianPriceUK Binged watched the series last week on a flight to UK - scheduled economy class not a private jet - and loved it! Although not sure quite the experience many diplomats have in some respects….

@UKinEthiopia ready for the #Coronation tomorrow

[Emily Summers @Emily_Summers1]

Today is #WorldLeopardDay. Reminds me of all the amazing encounters I had in the #OkavangoDelta when I was posted to #Botswana. Grateful for the privilege to be able to see them in their majesty. Appreciate not everyone can

[Emily Summers @Emily_Summers1]

Looking after a friend’s #diplodog and thought he had escaped. After a few minutes of searching I found him…

The UK government is coordinating an evacuation of British nationals from Sudan.

We have started contacting nationals directly and providing routes for departure out of the country.
