11/9/2025 Today, I spoke with our community about protecting girls before they undergo FGM. Every girl deserves dignity, health, and a future free from fear.
SaveHer. End FGM.

Inspired by the advocacy of Chair. Mohamed Jama @NdaAgency in breaking barriers in #Somalia. Persons with disabilities disproportionately bear the brunt of challenges Somalis face daily, & have the right to define solutions for a better future. #Inclusion #DisabilityRights

[UNICEF Somalia @unicefsomalia]

Data is at the heart of our governance agenda. Without indicators focusing on our social developments, our efforts will be akin to someone handing out medicines without a diagnosis. @MoPIED_Somalia ,Somalia National Bureau of Statistics UN in Somalia @UNICEFData @SalahJama

[UNICEF Somalia @unicefsomalia]

Launch of #mics7 survey in #Somalia to collect data on children and women. Important tool for sound decision-making. Last such survey was done 19 years ago. Strong leadership by @NBS_Somalia, with technical and financial support from @unicefsomalia & @WBG_IDA.

[UNICEF Somalia @unicefsomalia]

Data isn’t optional—it’s essential for development. Without it, the most vulnerable are left behind. #MICS7 will inform 40+ SDG indicators & 90% of Somalia’s National Transformation Plan indicators, driving planning & progress tracking. @GConway_UN

[Diene Keita @dienekeita]

At the @UNFPA Executive Board, I had the honour to brief @UN Member States on how our new Strategic Plan reaffirms UNFPA’s critical ICPD mandate—presenting a focused, dedicated organization with a unique advantage as a public health and population agency.

[George Conway @GConway_UN]
