🔸Understanding & hands-on experience in #gender & #DRR
🔸Ensuring women's effective participation & decision making
🔸Allocating adequate resources

A step forward for #Myanmar crisis to be put back on the govts priority list! This is one of the least funded responses globally and a forgotten regional crisis.

More states need to follow in the footsteps of @govsingapore ‼️

Singapore welcomes the @UN Security Council’s adoption of its 1st resolution on the situation in Myanmar on 21 December 2022. (1/3)

Half a million of those reached by @CARE in #Afghanistan are women. This decision does not only limit the right to #employment for women aid workers, it limits assistance to women.

[CARE (care.org) @CARE]

#Afghanistan: CARE is deeply concerned by the announcement that Afghan women are prohibited from working for NGOs. W/o women aid workers, NGOs may not be able to reach women, girls, & families, cutting access to aid for half of a population already suffering from a hunger crisis.

1 of 2: "This decision is not about #humanitarian group, @CARE or NGOs, it is about the millions of #Afghans who are in need of assistance, the women & girls who urgently need help"
Great talking to @LailaHarrak on #Afghanistan @CNN

[Deepmala Mahla @Deepmala_Mahla]

"The situation is urgent,it is a critical #humanitarian crisis. Please give us the ability to deliver to our mandate which is providing #humanitarian services with independence, with impartiality, with neutrality"
Thanks @abcnews for having me.#Afghanistan

[UN Women Afghanistan @unwomenafghan]

Women banned from working in national & international civil society organisations.

A chilling decision of unprecedented impact. The Taliban's latest ban on women's right to work is a breach of humanitarian principles and condemns Afghans to further and deepening crisis.

[Alexandra Matei @ale_matei]

this year could have not ended any worse for #women and #girls in #Afghanistan

[christinalamb @christinalamb]

I guess all those people - including me - discussing last year whether the Taliban have changed, now have their answer

At the #GRF session thinking out loud. Can we:
- make the pledges legally binding,
- have centrality of protection mainstreamed across the next #GRF
- set up stronger and more robust monitoring systems and indicators?

Let’s see what next year’s #GRF brings @UNHCRAsia
