@Victoriamary Wishing you strength & comfort in your grief, Victoria - the bad days & the good xx

[Tom Fletcher @UNReliefChief]

As 2024 closes, I pay tribute to over 300 humanitarian workers who lost their lives this year – deadliest on record.

I hope that in 2025 international law is upheld, we see genuine accountability, and humanitarian workers are protected to serve those most in need.

[Concern Worldwide @Concern]

👏 THANK YOU! 💚

Without your support this year we wouldn't have been able to help people living in the hardest to reach places in the world.

With your help, we are working with local communities to support emergency responses and development programmes reaching millions of people living in extreme poverty.

Together, we can end extreme poverty.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Everywhere we look, peace is under attack.

From Gaza, to Sudan, to Ukraine and beyond we see:

Civilians in the firing line.

Homes blown apart.

Traumatised, terrified populations.

This catalogue of human misery must stop.

Our world needs peace.

With more than 25M Sudanese people currently in humanitarian need, children are already dying & will continue to do so until the fighting ends & there is a major response by the international community.

Climate change is contributing to the intensity of the monsoon rains in #Bangladesh. Our team is on the ground working with communities impacted by the resultant floods.

@BarryAndrewsMEP @EP_Development Congratulations, Barry. Your voice & experience is invaluable, and your commitment is critical as humanitarian needs continue to rise, and more people are at risk of losing everything due to conflict & climate shocks.
We look forward to working with you @Concern

Kwanli Kladstrup looks at how @ConcernUK's response in Haiti differs from other countries they work in that are affected by conflict, and how support is possible despite the challenges.

We welcome the commitment by @MichealMartinTD to raise the horror of the deteriorating humanitarian crisis in Sudan with his EU counterparts.

Intervention by the EU & the wider international community is long overdue, 16 months after the conflict began.

Proud to see this important initiative to combat child hunger launched by @MichealMartinTD today - great collaboration between @IrlEmbEthiopia , @IrlEmbKenya and @Concern

[Ireland at UN @IrishMissionUN]

Min Ossian Smyth contributed to today’s #SOFI2024 event on Financing to End Hunger, Food Insecurity & Malnutrition.

He noted 🇮🇪’s efforts to address this, incl. by financing all parts of the food value chain.

In 2023, 🇮🇪 spent €284M on agriculture, food & nutrition programmes.

[Micheál Martin @MichealMartinTD]

Pleased to launch the €15m Hanaano initiative to combat child hunger in parts of Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia.

Child wasting has devastating consequences for children and their families.

Working with partners like Concern Worldwide, I’m confident we can make a real difference.

[Concern Worldwide @Concern]

An Tánaiste @MichealMartinTD today launched a multi-million Euro @Irish_Aid funded Concern programme to prevent the worst forms of child malnutrition among communities in the cross border areas of Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia.

[Irish Council for Civil Liberties 🏳️‍🌈 @ICCLtweet]

Fantastic to see the Charities Amendment Bill pass the final stages of the legislative process today.

One of the key changes contained in the bill is that, for the first time in Ireland, the advancement of human rights is considered to be a valid charitable purpose!
