Save the Children is devastated & outraged at the killing of staff member Ahmad Faisal Isleem Al-Qadi, 39, in an Israeli airstrike in #Gaza. Our second colleague killed in Gaza. We condemn this attack in the strongest terms & demand an investigation,” @SaveCEO_Intl
Hostage releases is a welcome first step but all children held must be freed. Children in Gaza remain at grave risk. The right to safety & assistance must be fulfilled for all children. We need a lasting ceasefire now.
I will be transitioning over to a new official account for @Save_Children’s CEO. Please follow me at @SaveCEO_Intl for updates on Save the Children’s work to ensure all children survive, learn and are protected.
We all felt the impacts of the #COVID19 pandemic and children are no exception. Millions experienced isolation, violence, loss & grief.
We must take action for their #MentalHealth.

Children born in 2020 will face almost 3 times more river floods and crop failure than their grandparents. The #climatecrisis is affecting children's futures.
We must act now.
Inspired by these child climate activists who are campaigning for climate justice and demanding action.
We must put children's voices at the centre of #climate commitments.
#Youth4Climate#climatecrisis
Children born in 2020 will face up to 7 times more scorching heat waves than their grandparents unless urgent #ClimateAction is taken.
Children’s lives and futures are under threat from the #ClimateCrisis.

With millions of South Sudanese in grave danger of starvation, youth activists Mabior & Achol are casting a spotlight on the special challenges faced by children.
At today's #UNGA event, they shared children's testimonies & coping strategies for facing the effects of hunger.

Even before this crisis, humanitarian aid to #Afghanistan was critically low, and millions of people were in desperate need of life-saving help.

We're facing the biggest hunger crisis of the 21st century. In #Afghanistan, 2 million children are dependent on nutrition services to survive. And in #Yemen, 10.3 million children are facing food shortages.
Leaders at #UNGA must act before we fall deeper into disaster. Join me.
At the #UNFSS2021 I reminded🌍leaders that #gender & gender-transformative approaches must be at the centre of efforts to improve nutrition. We must change the way we think about nutrition & gender equality, put girls and women at the centre of dialogues & decision making. #UNGA
