Fab to see this important step being taken by NZ Government, and to hear the goal of making the public sector carbon neutral by 2025 🥳.
Looking forward to hearing about more tangible goals and policies to meaningfully respond to the climate emergency 🐳 https://t.co/pV49BFHZnN

Historic vote to take place in #Bougainville this weekend. Hope process will be smooth without return to violence. Should heed advice from brave #peacebuilders, such as #HelenHakena and look for long-term, sustainable future.

Ensuring rentals are properly insulated is SUCH A GREAT POLICY!!!! Can’t believe it’s taken until 2019 but hats off to @NZGreens for getting this done🙏🏼💚💚💚💚
If your rental property isn't insulated by July the 1st you could be owed up to $4,000 in compensation.

You will be missed @JuliaCNicholson. Fab to be able to join with @iwda@IDMData colleagues in Madrid, Myanmar & Melbourne to wish you well as you head from Bangkok to @NewZealand
We had a virtual farewell for @JuliaCNicholson today with the @iwda@IDMData team. Just a reflection on how lucky I am to have such a wonderful team. Regardless of what next chapters unfold for any of us down the track I know we’ll always be #teamIDM 👋🏻
We're pleased to see @Stats_NZ introduce new options that will give people the option to describe their own gender in the upcoming Household Economic Survey. This will help us better understand the gender diversity of New Zealanders.

I know a lot of young people in the rainbow community who are fighting or have fought for their lives.
Some have lost that fight & aren’t here anymore.
Folau has chosen this path. This is the same treatment I’d expect if a player was outwardly racist.
This isn’t anti religion!
There are many clear gender equality commitments. But without the implementation that resourcing enables deep gender inequality persists. Change requires political will + sustained, flexible resourcing for change agents #FeministFunding@mamacash@AWID@iwda@ICRW@MATCHIntFund
There must be zero tolerance of all abusive behaviour. Sexual & gender-based violence, including against minors, is abhorrent & must be met with the full force of the law & support for victims. #Oxfam must work hard now, as it says, it will to ensure safety for clients & staff.
#Oxfam has done tremendous work around the world 🗺 for decades. That work must continue. Listen to @Winnie_Byanyima, Executive Director of @Oxfam on how the organisation is putting in place strong safeguards to ensure zero tolerance for abusive behaviour of any kind:
Chuffed! Great things happen when you work with great people on great things like new, gender sensitive measures of poverty ✨
