The future isn’t a game of chance.

Across Asia and the Pacific, young people are making their moves: building businesses, embracing AI, demanding equality and making choices that will determine if we live with cleaner environments and fairer economies.

Will young people make wise and smart moves and will public and private institutions, governments and investors hinder or help?

@sanjanasanghi96 and I share a few thoughts and moves on this board. And now, Your Move!

We enjoy clean streets and cities every day. But how often do we think about the people who make this possible?

For Safai Mitras, what we throw away in a minute can mean hours of collecting, sorting and recovering materials for recycling. Their work is essential to keeping our cities clean and resources in use. ♻️

This #WorldCitiesDay, let’s recognise the people behind our cities and do our bit to make their work easier. Segregating waste at home is a good place to start.

[Alexander De Croo 🇺🇳 @alexanderdecroo]

Every day, millions of people care for children, older people and those who need support.

Much of this work goes unseen, unpaid and unrecognised. And too often, it falls on women.

Care is essential to every society.

It’s time we gave care - and the people who provide it - the recognition and support they deserve.

#DayOfCare

[UNDP India @UNDP_India]

On the #InternationalDayofCare, we’re reminded that care is not just a social welfare intervention - it is an investment in equality, livelihoods and inclusive growth.

Access to quality childcare helps women stay in the workforce, strengthens family livelihoods and gives children the care they need to thrive.

🤝 UNDP in India, in partnership with @MobileCreches and local NGOs, is supporting efforts to make quality childcare more accessible and affordable for low-income families.
