I’m proud to be part of this project in South Upi, where women and youth are turning resilience into real opportunity. Paalala rin ito na ang pagwakas ng child labor ay hindi lang polisiya, kundi pagbibigay ng hanapbuhay, dignidad at pag-asa sa komunidad. @FAOPhilippines
In South Upi, 🇵🇭 @FAOPhilippines joined the nation in observing the #WorldDayAgainstChildLabour this June. Through the Resilient Livelihoods Development (RLD) for Women and Youth Internally Displaced Persons in Maguindanao Project, FAO joined other UN agencies and organizations in upholding the theme “Progress is clear, but there's more to do; let's speed up efforts.”

There is so much violence and so many wars in our world! Amid this horror that should provoke outrage—as people die in the name of military conquest—stands the call of Christ, who repeats: ‘Peace be with you!’
Our warmest wishes to everyone around the world who is celebrating #Easter.
May this moment of hope and new beginnings demonstrate how people of all faiths can foster dialogue and unite around our common humanity.
2025 is the International Year of Peace and Trust, an opportunity to remind people that we must mobilize the efforts of the international community in order to ensure lasting peace, solidarity and harmony.🕊️☮️
Let's invest in #peace and #trust!
