Today I got to share some of the innovations my MONUSCO colleagues are working on to ensure #datadriven#UNpeacekeeping at the #EAPTC organized by @ZIF_Berlin. Towards a bright tech PK future!
A #data revolution is taking place throughout the #UN system, says Annika Hansen, Deputy Head of Analysis @ZIF_Berlin, while opening the session on "Building capacity to enable data-driven peacekeeping". #EAPTC2021
@rogermacginty It would be barefoot south of the equator....feet would take that psychoanalysis to a whole nother level. Now imagining my bosses doing the tree pose to demonstrate their put-togetherness...
"This is a teachable moment that we can’t let slide... Advertisers must depict men sharing the burden of care in the home."

@berndulrich in @DIEZEIT herrlich trocken über die Identitätskrise der #CDU "Das Erreichte muss sich nicht vor dem Möglichen rechtfertigen, vielmehr ist das Erreichte der Beweis, dass nicht mehr möglich war - die Macht der Tautologie"
I don’t mean to suggest the turmoil in D.C. isn’t deeply concerning but I wish US-based journalists would stop these comparisons. They trivialize actual war. Soldiers in the streets don’t make a “war zone” (esp not when stationed in their own country). Washington is not Mosul.
Times of crisis can act as a catalyst. We can work together for better, through international cooperation we can recover and thrive again, it’s possible.

In most situation, death separates us with our loved one when we are unprepared for things such as funeral and burial. How do ethnic Zande fund funerals? My latest blog gives a detailed answer to this question. https://t.co/xwAvuwsxxv
A good morning for reading suggestions to help process fury. Because I wrote it, I’ll start with my book, Good and Mad, about the history & political power of women’s anger, now in paperback (& on sale in hardcover). BUT WAIT THERE’S LOTS MORE: https://t.co/YGLY9GgoAK
At the 75th #UNGA, 50 men addressed the General Assembly before it was a woman leader's turn to speak.
Only 22 of the 193 UN Member States have women heads of state or government.
We must step it up for gender equality.
@ingeligtvoet @demorgen@demorgen : Waarom zijn deze foto's nog niet gewijzigd? Ze ongecensureerd plaatsen slaat iedere journalistieke plank mis en is bij wet verboden. Zie Code van de Raad voor de Journalistiek, artikel 23: 'Identificatie van Slachtoffers.' Vreemd dit herhaaldelijk te moeten vragen!
Great blog by Isaac Hillary, a Zande student and refugee, on the changing practices of naming among Azande people of South Sudan. Balancing family lineage, the birth's circumstances, and the influence of the church. See his blog: https://t.co/FJ6HAW86Ba
Herr Juncker, Haben Sie keine Bauchschmerzen angesichts der Diktaturen und Autokraten, die Sie hier treffen?
Juncker: „Doch, habe ich. Aber wenn ich nur mit lupenreinen Demokraten zusammenarbeiten würde, wäre meine Woche dienstags immer schon zu Ende.“
