The UN works for gender equality, so every woman & girl can exercise her human rights & live up to her full potential.

Now, more than ever, we must work for equality, dignity, peace & all the ideals of the UN Charter. https://t.co/PhNh4SDARy #UN75

Reminder that #BLM is still and always will be relevant! There is so much work that still has to be done to find justice for the Black community. We’ve compiled a non-exhaustive list of Black-owned businesses in the US sourcing #fairtrade products and ingredients.

"Let us reaffirm that the UNA stands for human rights. We stand for justice. We stand for the future of humanity."

-Hon. Teta V. Banks, Chair of the @UNAUSA
National Council, following the death of #GeorgeFloyd and the ongoing nationwide #protests.

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

The U.S. police across the country are failing their obligations under international law to respect and facilitate the right to peaceful protest, exacerbating a tense situation and endangering the lives of protesters. All unnecessary or excessive force must cease immediately.

[United Nations @UN]

"The role that entrenched and pervasive racial discrimination plays in such deaths must be fully examined, properly recognized and dealt with."

-- @UNHumanRights chief @mbachelet on death of #GeorgeFloyd in the USA. https://t.co/lMDj7G5ZXk

[MCN @MCNpartners]

Are you an undergraduate student who is passionate about the health of our oceans and life below water? Do you have campaign ideas that can rally your peers to mobilize in this sector?

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

When journalists are attacked, societies are attacked.

No democracy can function without press freedom nor can any society be fair without journalists who investigate wrongdoing and speak truth to power.
