I have not been posting, & reposted less. Because no cry feels as if it is heard. And I refuse to believe none of my #socialprotection and #humanitarian colleagues care. It is just cruel #algorithmic #isolation, creating fragmented echo chambers.#CeasefireNOW #Palestine

[Giulio Coppi @GiulioWolfe]

We investigated 220 companies in 50 humanitarian projects, including digital ID & biometrics, connectivity, cybersecurity, AI, and cloud.

Bottom line: we need more transparency and human rights safeguards in humanitarian tech!

I strongly condemn an incident yesterday in which an aid convoy was fired upon while traveling from northern Gaza to Rafah. 

The convoy was clearly marked and its movements were coordinated with the parties. 

Attacks on humanitarian workers are unlawful. The conflict must stop.

The evolution and adaptation of the ESSN in Türkiye 🇹🇷: learning from the experience of @Kizilay and @ifrc at the Learning Event supported by @eu_echo. So much #agility and #innovation to learn from! #cashtransfers #socialprotection

To all #COP28UAE delegates: The money is there, it just needs to go to the right places.

[Reena Ghelani @rghelani]

For every 1$ spent on humanitarian aid, 170$ is used on fossil fuels subsidies.

The world has enough resources to build a #FamineFree future.

What's missing is political will.
