✊🏾 We are proud to be part of the #16DaysOfActivism, the global mobilisation against gender-based violence!

📢 #GoPublic and #FundEducation so that it is inclusive, gender transformative, and free for all
📢 Ratify and implement @ilo Convention190
As we approach #WorldTeachersDay on 10/5, we continue our calls for the release of Fatima Al-Rimawi, a kindergarten teacher imprisoned without trial. Her voice—and the voices of all teachers—must be heard. https://t.co/CxhWsIkZjK @eduint@NEUnion @gew_bund
GUPT General Secretary Saed Erziqat addressed the SADTU 10th National Congress, calling the situation in Palestine a "humanitarian disaster" with over 12,000 imprisoned and enduring severe hardships. @eduint@_cosatu@SABCNews

(1/2) Today is International Equal Pay Day, a day to mark the ongoing struggle to close the gender pay gap. Despite legislative protections, women continue to be over-represented in lower paid and precarious work.
Just Tragic.
#Gaza
Six @UNRWA colleagues killed today when two airstrikes hit a school and its surroundings in Nuseirat in the middle areas.
This is the highest death toll among our staff in a single incident.
Among those killed was the manager of the UNRWA shelter and other team members providing assistance to displaced people.
Sincere condolences to their families and loved ones.
This school has been hit five times since the war began.
It is home to around 12,000 displaced people, mainly women and children.
No one is safe in Gaza
No one is spared.
Schools and other civilian infrastructure must be protected at all times, they are not a target.
We call on all parties to the conflict to never use schools or the areas around them for military or fighting purposes.
#CeasefireNOW

Des centaines de femmes syndicalistes de l’éducation se sont réunies aujourd’hui au Caucus des femmes au #CongrèsIE.
Nous sommes unies pour
☑️Faire progresser l’égalité des genres
☑️Remettre en question les disparités de longue date dans l’éducation et le monde du travail

Nous condamnons fermement les attaques israéliennes contre les écoles à #Gaza. Les écoles doivent toujours être protégées en tant que sanctuaires sûrs.
Nous continuons d’appeler à un cessez-le-feu immédiat, à la libération de tous les otages et à la paix.

With almost no fuel available in #Gaza, critical desalination plants have shut down. People don’t have near enough water
Survival is a struggle. Families & children walk long distances in the heat for water
People need water to live - Israeli authorities must provide access NOW
