There is no more time for excuses: as the evidence of Israel’s genocide continues to mount the international community cannot claim they didn’t know.

As Israeli authorities and forces intensify their brutal campaign of annihilation, particularly in Gaza City, the UN Commission of Inquiry's damning new report provides further confirmation of what Amnesty International and others have been concluding for months: that the Israeli authorities and Israeli forces have committed and are continuing to commit genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

[Sightsavers @Sightsavers]

Dear world leaders, the future won’t wait—and neither can we. Inclusive education opens doors for children with disabilities to contribute to society. Sightsavers is answering the call. Are you? #AnswerTheCall #FundEducation

✨ Gisèle Pelicot transformed her pain into purpose, and silence into strength.

🗣️ By breaking her silence about surviving sexual violence, she empowered millions and became the face of courage, dignity, and resilience.

Her message? Shame must change sides.

There is #NoExcuse.

[Judith Herbertson @JSHerbertson]

Around 240 million children live with disabilities. They are twice as likely never to attend school and four times more likely to experience violence.

We cannot achieve SDG4 without specific action to support children with disabilities. #IDPD2024

[Sightsavers Policy and Research @Sightsavers_Pol]

Globally, 250 million children are out of school.

Education is a catalytic investment for #OurCommonFuture. The #LeadingSDG4 High-Level Steering Committee urges countries to free up more resources for education.

[Education 2030 @Education2030UN]

🚨Low- and lower-middle-income countries face a yearly financing gap of USD 97 billion.

Education is the cornerstone of human development and peace; it must take center stage at the Summit of the Future to advance #LeadingSDG4 towards #OurCommonFuture!
