Hey @DavidMalpassWBG @KGeorgieva no country should have to choose between protecting their citizens from #COVID19 and paying their debts. I believe it's time to #CancelTheDebt and support a bold emergency response #GlobalCitizen

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

In 2014, Global Citizens convinced 🇨🇦 to help protect children from preventable diseases by stepping up to support @Gavi. Now, world leaders need to come together once again to ensure millions of children get the vaccines they need. #VaccinesWork

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

See how activists, partners, and Global Citizens helped make change in South Africa to help ensure students at thousands of schools are no longer limited by their periods — and call on @DepartmentWomen @GovernmentZA @PresidencyZA @The_DSD to do more!

Thanks @CyrilRamaphosa @tito_mboweni @GovernmentZA for committing R157M for free sanitary products for school girls from low income households. 🇿🇦 is counting on you to keep it up, continue & expand investment in menstrual health supplies, education & toilets. #ItsBloodyTime

Hi @BMZ_Bund @AuswaertigesAmt every woman deserves to control her own future, but barriers like lack of birth control and child marriage impede this freedom. Will you attend #ICPD25 in Nairobi this November and speak out for all women to access their #SRHR rights? #SheCanPlan

Hi President @NAkufoAddo. Investment in smallholder farmers can reduce the cycle of poverty and food insecurity. Africa agreed to invest 10% of national budgets in agriculture — will you be a champion and meet the target in Ghana?

Education matters to all children! As a @GlblCtzn I’m calling on @JapanMissionUN @MofaJapan_en to help kids in crisis with $50M across 3 years to @EduCannotWait so every child can go to school. #EducationCannotWait

Want to know how you can help to support others locally during #COVID19? Check out this @GlblCtzn article now on how we can all make a difference! https://t.co/LzpaAt3hPP

.@JustinTrudeau @KarinaGould — viral outbreaks anywhere are a threat to people everywhere. Will Canada pledge new funds to @Gavi to deliver vaccines and help protect the poorest countries from deadly pandemics and disease? We can only #DefeatDiseaseTogether.

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Hi @DFID_UK, will you continue to pledge UK support to ensure @WHO @DrTedros have the funds to tackle #COVID19? I hope the UK will pledge more ££ to meet the USD $675 million urgently required. We can beat this pandemic and keep the 🌍 safe.

Hi @NamPresidency, @tjekero thank you for committing to ratify the @ILO Convention on Violence and Harassment in the World of Work! This will help women get the legal protection at work they deserve. As a @GlblCtzn I hope to see other world leaders do the same #LeveltheLaw

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

.@RepEliotEngel, @SenToddYoung, @ChrisCoons, @SenatorCollins — thank you for answering Global Citizens' calls, emails, and tweets to support strong U.S. Aid and legislation that will help ensure the health and education of children around the world. #AidWorks #ReachAct #KGISA

Hi @GastonBrowne thank you for partnering with @parleyforoceans to become the first Future Island Nation in the Caribbean 🌴. As a @GlblCtzn I hope that other countries will follow your lead in tackling marine plastic pollution! 🌊

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Let's go Australia: pls continue your generous investment in #GPEI by making a new $25M commitment at the #ReachTheLastMile conference so that all children can be immunised and we #EndPolio. @ScottMorrisonMP can you help? @GlblCtznAU @rotarydownunder @EndPolioNow #WorldPolioDay

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Hi @erna_solberg @NorwayMFA — thank you for answering Global Citizens' call to support @EduCannotWait and to #StepUpTheFight against #AIDS, #TB and #malaria with a commitment to the @GlobalFund. This is exactly the kind of leadership needed to achieve the Global Goals by 2030.

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Thank you @KanoStateGovt, @aksgovt, and @BornoGovt for your work thus far on the #SDGs. Please join Global Citizen in 2020 and commit between USD $14-21 million to help end open defecation for the citizens you represent. 💧 🇳🇬 🚽

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Thanks @GovPlateauState and @lagosstategov for your incredible commitments at the 2019 Global Citizen Festival for clean water, sanitation, and to end open defecation! 🚽 🇳🇬 We will continue to call on your fellow governors to fund an open defecation free Nigeria.

Hi @NamPresidency @hagegeingob @MartinVizcarraC @presidenciacr—as a @GlblCtzn I believe in a world where #SheIsEqual. Will you lead the way to #LevelTheLaw and protect women and girls by ratifying & implementing the @ILO Convention on Violence and Harassment in the World of Work?

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Hi @DBE_SA, we are delighted that you recognised the voices of over 27,000 Global Citizens who called on you to #RaiseTheGrade. Will you attend Global Citizen Festival in NYC and share a plan to expand the package of reading materials, lesson plans and coaching nationally?

[ernst gerber @ernstg69]

Hi @DFID_UK — as a @GlblCtzn I believe no child should suffer from polio. I’m proud that #UKAid has helped to reduce new cases by 99.9% — now will you step up again and urgently support #GPEI’s work to reach every last child and #EndPolio? We can build a #PolioFreeWorld!
