This story about flooding, conflict and resulting hunger in #SouthSudan by @ABCWorldNews, created in collaboration with @WFP/@WFP_SouthSudan, just won an Emmy!

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

.@WFP is heartbroken to learn two @Refugees colleagues in Lebanon were killed in an Israeli airstrike. Our deepest condolences to their families & teams still on the ground delivering aid. The violence must end—no more innocent lives should be lost. Humanitarians are #NotATarget.

[Thida Ith @Thida_Ith]

Working with the amazing people at WFP has been a great reminder of the power of collectiveaction to bring about change, improve our food systems, strengthen our resilience to climate change, and reduce inequalities. Thank you WFP colleagues for your courage and determination 🕊

[Thida Ith @Thida_Ith]

Today is my last day with the @WFP_Canada. It has been an honour and a privilege to speak on behalf of WFP to raise awareness on the issues of #hunger and food insecurity in the world. 🌎

La guerre au #Soudan fait rage depuis 500 jours. La moitié de la population est confrontée à une faim aiguë et une famine a été confirmée dans le camp des déplacés de Zamzam. Un cessez-le-feu est essentiel pour sauver des vies

[United Nations @UN]

Afghanistan: New legislation completely erases women’s presence in public, silences their voices & reinforces restrictions on their rights, warns @UNHumanRights, calling for the law to be immediately repealed.

“This is utterly intolerable.”

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

This is totally unacceptable and must change immediately. We have repeatedly asked for a functioning deconfliction system in Gaza, and yet the current arrangements have failed. Humanitarians are #NotATarget. https://t.co/FUWBV8dNk6

[WFP Haiti (PAM) 🕊️ @WFP_Haiti]

In #Haiti nearly 600,000 people are displaced by violence.

Half are children 👩‍👦‍👦

Living in difficult conditions, those under five are among the most vulnerable to malnutrition.

With our partners, @WFP is working to prevent malnutrition and refer those in need for treatment.

[Thida Ith @Thida_Ith]

I am in absolute admiration of my colleagues on the ground who face danger and put their lives at risk to deliver life-saving assistance around the globe 🌍

On this #WorldHumanitarianDay, let us remember those who make a difference. 🕊️💙

[WFP in the Middle East & North Africa @WFP_MENA]

In the face of danger and obstacles, humanitarians stand strong. They continue to deliver hope and relief 💪

And to keep their promises to the communities they serve, safe access is essential❗

[WFP Ethiopia @WFP_Ethiopia]

Multiple landslide incidents have tragically taken lives & disrupted livelihoods in Southern Ethiopia.
@WFP is providing nutrition support to those affected in #Gofa & is leading the @LogCluster response
We stand ready to support the Government's response in other affected areas

[Thida Ith @Thida_Ith]

Right now, the world produces enough food to nourish every child, woman and man on the planet. 🌎

@CreoleBauer @WFP_Haiti Je te souhaite bon succès dans cette prochaine étape! Merci pour tout ton travail en Haïti!

[WFP Sudan @WFP_Sudan]

Today, unidentified armed men attacked 3 WFP trucks full of food aid en route to Central Darfur

Food assistance meant to feed thousands was looted

We urge local authorities to ensure the perpetrators are held accountable

The safe delivery of supplies MUST be guaranteed by ALL
