This is a good time for youth to be heard and seen in the world. Kiribati is still under a threat of Climate Change. This would be definitely a place for youths to speak up to the world concerning our contemporarily issues.

[🇪🇺EU at UN-NY @EUatUN]

🚨The UN General Assembly just agreed to create a new UN Youth Office.

The role of the Office will be to coordinate youth issues @UN & to promote youth participation and rights.

The EU🇪🇺 strongly supports the initiative & stands by young people everywhere.

In 1985 Carl Sagan testified before Congress on climate change. Can you imagine if they had listened?

Startup ByFusion's machine uses steam and compression to create standard building blocks from virtually all types of plastic waste.

The company hopes to provide solutions to both infrastructure and the environmental effects of non-recyclable plastics. https://t.co/pP75qaF84g

A moving dance by Kiribati despite their government leaving the PIFS...and kudos to Samoan PM for sitting here and being graced by the dance. It was certainly a long day for the Leaders at #PIFLM51

@mytagimoucia Enjoying your photos- capturing our beautiful islands from above, hope you can also take a beautiful view of my home island Marakei. Vinaka.

Kiribati – an independent Pacific island, where humans have lived for nearly 5,000 years – will cease to exist by the end of the century if sea levels continue rising.

They're not the only ones facing an uncertain future... and it's not just islands either.

In Kiribati 🇰🇮, UNICEF is working closely with its partners on the ground to support the government’s COVID-19 response efforts.

The newly established RT-PCR molecular container laboratory in Kiribati🇰🇮 has achieved its final validation from the Doherty Institute in December indicating readiness in the diagnosis and management of #COVID19 and the application of its technology.

@Ahhmandah I suppose all returning missionaries wo were longing to see their families after their mission n stranded overseas

[Barekiau Martin @FrancisMartin8]

No matter what, our islands will be in the frontline of Climate Change! The average height of 3 METERS above the sea level is just INCOMPARABLE to other big and industrialized nations. We want to live on our shore and NOT victims of climate change!

"This is the highest point of respect" - Kiribati's Environment Minister has defended the cultural practice used to welcome the Chinese Ambassador to Marakei Island.

Ruateki Tekaiara is also the MP for the island, and was there during the visit.

Aww my Marakei..

[Barekiau Martin @FrancisMartin8]

@JakeBro46619116 @kubunaiwai @MichaelFieldNZ This is Tarawa the capital, not Marakei island.

[Barekiau Martin @FrancisMartin8]

@ArcherMail @benedictrogers @Anne_MarieBrady Because he was landed on Tarawa airport, the capital island. Marakei island in the north was the event took place as a custom to welcome dignitaries quest. He would definitely get the same treatment if he'd visited Marakei island.
