Welcomed my friend Moshe Klein, founder of the Jewish Diaspora Project, to @Eritrea_UN.
Ahead of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, Moshe brought honey and sweet treats, a thoughtful gesture symbolizing wishes for a sweet and peaceful year ahead.
We also exchanged views on global issues, the work of the @UN, and developments in the #Horn of #Africa. Having visited #Eritrea, Moshe brings a valuable first-hand appreciation of #Eritrea|s perspectives and its unique historical and regional context.
People-to-people engagement and dialogue across cultures and communities can contribute meaningfully to greater understanding and friendship.
Happy Rosh Hashanah to all those celebrating. May the New Year bring peace, health and prosperity.
Productive discussions with Mr. Hyun Kim, Director of the Global Centre for Climate Mobility and Head of Secretariat of the Rising Nations Institute, on climate mobility, the Rising Nations Initiative and the UN Declaration on Sea-Level Rise.
Exchanged perspectives on the importance of people-centred, community-based resilience and of ensuring that climate action strengthens communities’ capacity to adapt, sustain livelihoods and remain rooted in their communities.
Shared #Eritrea|s experience in building climate resilience through locally anchored approaches and national ownership, highlighting the importance of linking adaptation, development, livelihoods and human dignity.
Climate resilience should not begin with the assumption that people must move; it should begin by asking what we can do to enable communities to remain, adapt and thrive.
Trade is about people, opportunity and shaping tomorrow. In Asmara, government officials across ministries joined a two-day #AfCFTA workshop, facilitated by UNECA and co-hosted by UN #Eritrea, to explore pathways to economic transformation, competitiveness and resilient growth.
Welcomed H.E. Peter Hulényi, PR of #Slovakia, to @Eritrea_UN for an exchange on Slovakia’s priorities in its bid for a non-permanent seat on the UN Security Council.
We discussed peacekeeping, Security Sector Governance & Reform, energy security and strategic resources, including water, as well as digital technologies and AI.
Shared #Eritrea|s perspectives and priorities @UN, approaches to peace and security in the #Horn region, and inclusive, effective multilateralism.

This is #Eritrea .
A green wave lifts and breaks along Eritrea’s Red Sea shore, catching the last light beneath a heavy sky. In that brief flash of foam and color lies the long memory of this coast—the sea that has carried trade, history, and identity for centuries.🌊 🇪🇷
