A big thank you to @LaotianTimes for interviewing me about my time in Laos. I tried to explain how I see the role of an Ambassador, and why issues like sustainability are so important to me.

[Food and Agriculture Organization @FAO]

@elsadonohue @vislaos @FAOinLao Great Initiative to raise-awareness on #wastewater and #contamination of #rivers #lakes #wetlands #oceans. Information is key for #futuregenerations #empowerment to achieve #BetterEnvironment and #BetterLife

[FAO in Lao People's Democratic Republic @FAOLaoPDR]

In developing countries, 80% of wastewater is dumped into rivers, lakes, wetlands or oceans without being treated.

Increased investments in solutions for wastewater reuse & capacity building are needed to address water-related challenges

It’s the burning season, and an acrid smoke hangs in the air. It’s baking hot (39 degrees today). And everything is bone dry - we haven’t had rain for about 5 months. Vientiane isn’t great at this time of year…

I have an absolute fear of needles, but still tried to give blood 🩸 this morning with my @UNDPLaoPDR colleague @kiettisacks - many thanks 🙏 to @UNVAsiaPacific @FAO @LCWerleigh @UNFPALaoPDR for organizing the event #Giveblood

[FAO Forestry @FAOForestry]

🌳🌲 Today is the International Day of Forests!

Did you know that forests cover nearly 1/3 of land globally?

That’s 4.06 billion hectares.

Or around 0.52 hectares of forest for every person on the planet!

Haiti are just 2 wins away from the #FifaWWC, as the inter-confederation play-offs arrive. I spoke to the world's 'best young player' Melchie Dumornay for @TelegraphSport about playing barefoot as a kid, signing for Lyon, and hoping to face ENG in Grp D https://t.co/6qMD7QLUpF

[L C Werleigh-Pearson @LCWerleigh]

@TomJGarry @TelegraphSport Thanks for sharing @TomJGarry and excellent article @TelegraphSport - as a Haitian woman abroad, it gives me hope! Only comment is that the 2010 earthquake caused over 200,000 deaths, not 2,200. (Sadly about 5x as many deaths as in Turkey / Syria..)
