⚠️2.2 billion people lack safe drinking water
🚰3.5 billion don't have access to proper sanitation
A water-secure world is not an aspiration but a human right. We must address the root causes of poverty and inequality to ensure this right is fulfilled and protected
Today’s #NobelPeacePrize, awarded to Narges Mohammadi, is an important reminder that women's rights are facing a strong pushback, in Iran & elsewhere.
This Prize is a tribute to all the women fighting for their rights at the risk of their freedom, health & even their lives.

Delighted to be back in the #Pacific today! Seeing Blue+Green Fiji from the skies - truly breathtaking. But for how long can the small atolls withstand climate strikes? Global community w @UN@UNDP must do all we can to #SaveThePacific for current and future generations @ASteiner
The climate crisis has led to more extreme weather and destruction.
Early warning systems help humanitarians act before disaster strikes.
We are working to ensure everyone on the planet is protected by these systems within the next five years.
This week, the world broke the daily temperature record.
This is yet another demonstration that climate change is out of control and one reason more for increased #ClimateAction ambition and justice.
Great privilege today visit @UNESCO world heritage site Leptis Magna in western Libya. Much remains to be excavated & studied. Extraordinary heritage to care for future generations. Maybe @holland_tom & @dcsandbrook can schedule a @TheRestHistory

Why take a picture in front of an AC in the record section of the Pohnpei State hospital? 🏥 With funding from @theGEF@UNDP_Pacific supporting the FSM 🇫🇲 on Energy Efficiency in Public buildings. This will save $200k+/yr, let alone reduce GHGs and keeping staff cool. Win-win-win
. @UNDP_Pacific is happy to successfully complete two days regional workshop on integrated boarder management and covid- 19 response. We learn that balancing security and economic growth as well as the push for innovation was worth it.
As @UNDPLibya moves into its new offices today in Janzour - first dedicated office in 7 years - we make sure our goals #SDGs also move with us. This completes our installation back fully staffed in Libya 🇱🇾. #heretostay@UNDPArabStates 📸 Mohammed Naas
