🌟Did you know that fewer than half of infants under 6 months old are exclusively breastfed? At #Amref, we are committed to changing the trend. #Breastfeeding is the best source of nourishment for infants and young children, and we aim to increase the rate of exclusive breastfeeding to at least 50% by 2025.

To achieve this, we train health workers to provide skilled support to breastfeeding mothers, helping them overcome challenges and monitor their children’s growth.

Join us in this vital initiative to ensure every mother can breastfeed anytime, anywhere. Together, we can make a difference in promoting #ChildHealth in Africa. 💪

#Famine in #Sudan: The war in has pushed a camp housing about 500,000 displaced people near the besieged Darfur city of el-Fasher into famine. “We know that widespread deaths have already occurred by the time a famine is officially declared.” @theIPCinfo

Manche mögen das neue Maß an #Solidarität in der #EU beim 🇪🇺 #Asylkompromiss feiern. Ich trauere den #Menschenrechten an Außengrenzen nach & der Hoffnung, die ursprünglich mit den - nun leeren - Verprechungen der 🇩🇪 #Bundesregierung verbunden war.
#Asylrecht ist #Menschenrecht

[Save the Children Deutschland @SaveChildrenDE]

Faeser spricht von einem "historischen Erfolg". Wir sagen: Abschottung und Ausgrenzung haben gewonnen.

Beim Treffen der EU-Innenminister*innen wurden humanitäre Grundprinzipien geopfert. Völlig legal können schutzsuchende Kinder jetzt in Grenzlagern untergebracht werden.

[PRO ASYL @ProAsyl]

Die Bundesregierung hat gestern dem Ausverkauf der #Menschenrechte in Europa zugestimmt.

Die Originaltexte, die beim EU-Innenminister*innen Treffen beschlossen wurden, sind immer noch nicht veröffentlicht.

Eine 1. Reaktion auf die Zwischenergebnisse:

[Ralph Achenbach_on_BlueSky @RalphAchenbach]

Gutted by the 🇪🇺 #asylum "reform" & 🇩🇪 gvmt support for it. Those who laud new levels of #Solidarity fail to understand that it is complicity in undermining #protection standards & #HumanRights for those #forcedtoflee, incl. children.
Good overview 🧵 ⬇️

@Holger_Michel Tja, da hat der Quereinstieg nicht gleich auf Anhieb hingehauen... 😆

[Ralph Achenbach_on_BlueSky @RalphAchenbach]

@SmrutiPatel11 @A4EP2 @GrandBargain_ 👏 only when funding goes directly to national/local actors will #localization/#localisation be more than a buzzword!

[Ralph Achenbach_on_BlueSky @RalphAchenbach]

@RalfSuedhoff @InstitutoIECAH 👏 for concrete steps!
Any comments on whether 10% #humanitarian action funding means everything pumped into #UN system or maybe some funding going directly to #NGOs, incl & especially local/national ones?

[Ralph Achenbach_on_BlueSky @RalphAchenbach]

@Holger_Michel 😆🤣
Wobei sich für ihn die Reise ja tatsächlich am meisten lohnen könnte vom Lernpotenzial her. Stichworte Bahn, Pünktlichkeit und so...

[Ralf Suedhoff @RalfSuedhoff]

How does #humanitarian leadership need to change to tackle #climatechange?
Very much looking forward to discuss at #ehf2023 this Monday in Brussels with former Dep. High Commissioner for Human Rights #KateGilmore & @mickoehler at this @the_geli panel:

@gibbin_hannah @RESCUEorg @DRC_ngo Stronger together 💪👍

[Ralph Achenbach_on_BlueSky @RalphAchenbach]

Largely symbolic, but strong signal to highlight #IHL & #HumanRightsViolations in #Ukraine️ & need for #accountability to end #AgeofImpunity. And let's not forget: #WarCrimes is a pandemic in most/all #conflicts around 🌎 - hold perpetrators accountable!
