In 1989, 14 women were murdered at Polytechnique Montréal. They were killed because they were women. We remember their names, their dreams. We share a collective responsibility to end gender-based violence.

Almost 2 out of 3 children globally – 1.4 billion – are living in poverty, and historic levels of conflict are contributing to it.

@UNICEF released its flagship report today: State of the World's Children. The focus is child poverty and its impact.

“Afghanistan’s girls are losing more than academic lessons; they are being deprived of social contact, personal growth, the chance to shape their futures and fulfill their potential.” -@unicefchief

“UNICEF urgently calls on the de facto authorities to lift this devastating ban and allow every girl in Afghanistan to attend school—from primary to secondary and beyond.”

No child should ever fear going to school. But today millions do.

Attacks on schools have deprived millions of children of their right to an education. Children, and their education, must always be protected.

Because of the humanitarian funding crisis, 2.4 million starving children won't get the ready-to-use therapeutic food they need in 2025. 14 million total will face disruptions in nutrition support. News update from @UNICEF: https://t.co/71NY7rsGW2

On #InternationalWomensDay, nowhere is the fight for women’s basic rights more urgent than in Afghanistan. From the archive this week, my report on the Taliban’s ban on girls & women attending high school & universities, in an ongoing attempt to erase them from public life.

Funding cuts by numerous donor countries will limit UNICEF’s ability to reach millions of children in dire need.

UNICEF implores all donors to continue to fund critical aid programs for the world’s children.

We cannot fail them now.👇 https://t.co/rxdDZmkHEK

For anyone who didn't know, there's a way for individuals to donate directly to Ukraine. UNITED24 - The initiative of the President of Ukraine 🇨🇦💛🇺🇦 https://t.co/RKDdrJhU5n

[UNICEF @UNICEF]

The ceasefire deal has begun and UNICEF trucks with water, hygiene kits and nutrition items are entering the Gaza Strip.

A ceasefire agreement is a critical first step, but it must be upheld. Parties to conflict must ensure safe, unimpeded access for aid to reach every child.

@KayLaframboise @mtlgazette Amazing news! 🙌

[UN Women @UN_Women]

✨ Gisèle Pelicot transformed her pain into purpose, and silence into strength.

🗣️ By breaking her silence about surviving sexual violence, she empowered millions and became the face of courage, dignity, and resilience.

Her message? Shame must change sides.

There is #NoExcuse.

[Old Canada Series @oldcanadaseries]

35 years ago today 14 women were killed at Montréal’s École Polytechnique. Today is Canada’s National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.

Eight times as many children around the world will be exposed to extreme heatwaves in the 2050s, and 3 times as many will face river floods compared with the 2000s if current trends continue #SOWC #WorldChildrensDay

Following escalation of hostilities, I am launching an emergency appeal for the children of #Lebanon with #UNICEF.

More than 1.3 million children are threatened by the escalating conflict, and over 300,000 have already been displaced.

#UNICEF is on the ground delivering life-saving humanitarian aid : food, medicine, basic necessities and access to drinking water.

Your donation today can provide essential supplies and life-saving care to children and families displaced by the conflict. Even a small amount can make a big difference !

Today, the children of #Lebanon need your help. Thank you so much!

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Today — and each day, we honour and remember residential school Survivors and the children who never returned home, their families and our communities. Let's work together towards healing, understanding, and reconciliation.

[OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives @OECD]

Today is #InternationalEqualPayDay.

On average across OECD countries, full-time working women earn around 88 cents for every USD or EUR earned by full-time working men.

We must do more, and faster, to achieve #PayEquity.

@unicefchief @UNICEF @ICCSecGen @GATFnews Really important work

[Elysha Del Giusto-Enos @elyshaenos]

A lot of countries are still using paper-based systems at the border. This causes delays in getting supplies where they're needed. Here's what UNICEF and partners are doing 👇

[UNICEF Supply @UNICEFSupply]

Watch how @UNICEF's collaboration with @GATFnews is helping countries streamline their border processes to ensure the timely delivery of life-saving supplies for children 🌎

Special thanks to @eu_echo for its support.
