Passionate about social protection, gender equality, international development & financial inclusion at work, traveling, reading and eating in life 🇮🇹in 🇨🇮
A ministerial delegation from #Burundi is in Kenya to learn about Kenya’s experience with the Enhanced Single Registry (ESR) for coordinated #SocialProtection.
The visit is supported through the Global South-South Cooperation Trust Fund.
In Afghanistan, now even the female mannequin’s faces must be covered.
The Taliban have ordered all shopkeepers to either behead female mannequins or cover their faces.
This is symbol of the Taliban's treatment of women in Afghanistan. Haunting.
Girls crying in agony as they’re told that they will have to leave the university & go home as the Taliban have BANNED female university education in Afghanistan.
Painful to hear. How can we sit idly by as millions of girls are denied their human rights.
A day after of the Taliban BANNED female university education, women & girls have come out on the streets of Kabul protesting against the decree.
They chant —“Either for everyone or for no one. One for all, all for one”
Amplify their voices.
Happy International Women's Day!

It is with a monumentally heavy heart that I write this, having learned that Max Edkins, the @WorldBank shining light on #climate communications, was among those who perished in the tragic Ethiopian plane crash this morning. RIP @maxthabiso, will continue to fight in your honor!
It sounds like a sci-fi movie but it’s real life – the planet is experiencing both record #Heat and record #Cold at the same time https://t.co/i7RQFjBT3h
“Peace is the only way forward” -- @UnicefChief update on Yemen, where:

Exciting to see Indonesia's StaNas program in action with President @Jokowi. Strong political leadership is critical to improve #humancapital -- and the President and his government have demonstrated just this.
It was an historic moment to witness so many ministers working together toward one goal -- reducing childhood #stunting. This kind of commitment is exactly what is needed. I hope #Indonesia will inspire many more countries.
