Without foreign aid, essential services like #education cannot be provided to meet the needs of the people of Afghanistan. Powerful words from @RESCUEorg's Vicki Aken, Country Director of Afghanistan on @60Minutes
Alfonsi: I think a lot of people will say, "We don't want to see aid go to Afghanistan because we don't want to give money to the Taliban.”
Vicki Aken, IRC: So you want to make 38m people suffer because of a few thousand? That math doesn't work for me.

Investing in #education, particularly for women and girls, is essential to build a healthy, stable, prosperous and prepared future. Thank you for recognizing this, @SpeakerPelosi. Critical as well not to forget the most vulnerable-- those impacted by #crisis and #conflict.
“If I ruled the world, the one thing that I would do is invest in the education of women & girls & their empowerment.”
Thank you @SpeakerPelosi for focusing on how education is life-saving at #COP26— especially as women & girls are the most affected by climate change.
Education protects girls during crisis-- and yet it is one of the many losses girls experience during conflict, leaving them even more vulnerable to abuse, violence and exploitation. @RESCUEorg outlines the problem--and our colleagues are tirelessly working on solutions
The situation for girls in places prone to conflict and crisis can change in an instant.

Critical that the @g20org meeting today agree a mechanism to deliver vital aid, including for education. Millions in funding is frozen and must flow again for schools to reopen. #Together4Afghans#G20Italy

On #TeachersDay, Yasmine, Early Childhood Development #ECD Manager at @RESCUEorg#Lebanon sends out a message to IRC teachers “You are making learning an enjoyable experience. In each word you say, in each letter you teach, you inspire a child to learn & grow.”

The right to education must be upheld, even during crisis. Humanitarian actors need to fund emergency education for Afghan children. @RESCUEorg was proud to endorse this letter.
Protecting the right to education for Afghan children will require a significant increase in coordinated international support.
Today 5️⃣0️⃣ organisations have endorsed @IPNEducation’s call for the @G20org to develop & fund a plan for Afghan education.
