It's a pleasure to be leading this crucial project together with @KEDVTurkiye @EBRD

Our #launch event brought together 56 key stakeholders to enhance project buy-in & share insights from ongoing initiatives across the #gender space

#WomenEmpowerment #EconomicInclusion

[EBRD Gender @EBRDgender]

The EBRD CSE Team is proud to partner with Oxfam-KEDV to empower women in southeastern Türkiye with skills, resources, and a stronger voice in business and local development.

In Gaziantep, we reaffirmed our commitment to inclusion and opportunity for all🤝

EBRD promotes sustainable development in a complex landscape by working with different actors - state, market, communities and international partners. Civil society is a vital partner in this collaborative approach. @BowmanEBRD @FordFoundation @alan_rousso @IgorJanke #EBRDam

[Odile Renaud-Basso @OdileRenaud]

Leading @EBRD since 2020, an era of great global tension, has been an honour & privilege

I want to thank our shareholders for their support & trust

Now they have reelected me, I will strive to deliver even more impact, further transform #EBRD & expand cooperation with partners

[Odile Renaud-Basso @OdileRenaud]

Today the heads of multilateral development banks met at #COP28 and reiterated their joint commitment to scale up finance and step up country-level collaboration, along with a package of other measures. Read more here: https://t.co/ldMihS9NUM

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

In Antarctica, I saw for myself & heard from scientists how ice loss is accelerating in dangerous ways.

Climate change is wreaking havoc. Fossil fuels are the main culprit.

At #COP28, leaders must act to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C & end the fossil fuel age.

[Odile Renaud-Basso @OdileRenaud]

On the third day of this trip to #Turkiye I have been shocked by the scale of destruction in Hatay and Nurdağı wrought by this year's earthquake and moved by the massive loss of life and suffering.

But I have also been very impressed by the resilience of the people I have met.

[Geerija Aggarwal @GeerijaAggarwal]

@EBRD and @Oxfam Türkiye visited the southern region of the country to assess how our project can help local & refugee women address their business needs and promote their positioning in the local economy.

We are excited for next steps of this project to advance women rights!

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

This is happening in front of our eyes with the full support of almost every Western government. A humanitarian catastrophe.

[Michael Walker @michaeljswalker]

Western leaders might like to ignore the context of a decades long occupation. They might see Palestinian lives as worthless collateral. Their publics don’t all agree. https://t.co/BlWgFOniqG

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

“Ordering a million people in Gaza to evacuate, when there’s no safe place to go, is not an effective warning... World leaders should speak up now before it is too late.”

- @cliveabaldwin, senior legal adviser

[UN Humanitarian @UNOCHA]

📢⚠️ Flash appeal:

The situation in the #GazaStrip and #Israel continues to unfold rapidly. Ongoing hostilities are having grave humanitarian consequences.

Humanitarians require US$294M to address the most urgent needs of 1.3M people in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. ⬇️

[WFP Media @WFP_Media]

#Gaza

"The situation is devastating. We are seeing shortages of fuel, water and electricity. We are seeing overcrowded shelters."

@SamerWFP on @CBCNews Power and Politics about the devastating situation in Gaza and the #WestBank.
