I have just warned global leaders at #COP27:
We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.
Our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible.
We need urgent #ClimateAction.
This weekend we hosted our partners from the TOTAL PEACE project to commemorate Etty Hillesum. Our event included: a visit to the OPCW; a lecture on Etty Hillesum's life; a visit to the Mauritshuis; a tour of the Jewish neighborhood of The Hague.
Thank you all for joining us!
