Imagine standing in the heart of a vibrant farm in #Senegal, where the sun isn't just shining—it's powering the future! ☀️

Hannah, our Senior Global Content Producer, visited our team there last month to learn more about how communities are confronting climate change head-on.

New IPC data for Sudan confirms what humanitarians on the ground already know: famine is at the door. 775,000 people are on the brink & 8.5M face extreme food shortages while global response lags. The world is failing the people of Sudan once again. https://t.co/ihdNZIlkQO

In the worst conditions, the best of humanity shows up. Thank you @chefjoseandres for your urgent plea after the horrific & inexcusable killing of 7 @WCKitchen staff in Gaza – now nearly 200 aid workers killed in Gaza since Oct. We will honor them always. https://t.co/LPTTQI7o9r

[Tom Hart @Tom_InterAction]

The Biden administration continues to ship bombs to Israel despite the dire humanitarian situation in #Gaza and the killing of seven @WCKitchen aid workers.

This policy must change.

My opinion in @Newsweek:

We know US investments in global development deliver a substantial return on investment in security and economic growth - but the FY24 budget cuts threaten this progress. Congress must pass increased funding for development assistance in FY25.

[Kate Moger @katemoger]

Important🧵. Condolences and acknowledgment of all aid workers who have lost their lives in the service of humanity. And a bleak recognition of what continued impunity for Israel means for the conflict and the humanitarian situation (and, by implication, for IHL) #NotATarget

[World Central Kitchen @WCKitchen]

World Central Kitchen is devastated to confirm seven members of our team have been killed in an IDF strike in Gaza. Read our full statement on the loss of our team members here: https://t.co/gsijamzfMU

[Jan Egeland @NRC_Egeland]

We are mourning with our colleagues in WCK.
7 of their aid workers were killed by an Israeli air strike in Gaza.
WCK had informed the IDF of their movement.
Nowhere else are so many aid workers killed.
There must be an immediate ceasefire. Enough now.

“This incident is not an isolated incident.” IRC’s Ciarán Donnelly joined @GarrettHaake to talk about how the most recent killing of WCK staff in Gaza will affect humanitarian aid. https://t.co/qGODztei05

[Tjada D'Oyen McKenna @Tjada]

The strike on aid workers w/@WCKitchen is abhorrent & underscores a lack of safety guarantees for humanitarians & civilians in Gaza. Aid cannot be delivered to 2M+ hungry people under these conditions. Sending my deepest condolences to the WCK family. Aid workers are #NotATarget

My heart goes out to the loved ones of the 7 @WCKitchen team members killed in Gaza. Their deaths are not an anomaly: more than 200 aid workers have been killed while delivering aid in Gaza. Each death is tragic, appalling & inexcusable. Humanitarians are #NotATarget.

[Sofia Sprechmann Sineiro @SofiaSprechmann]

.@CAREGlobal teams and our partners in #Gaza stand ready to support this resolution and scale up aid to the strip.
#UNSC members must do all in their power to ensure we can do this and famine is averted. The roadmap has been set, humanity cannot afford to wait. #CeasefireNOW

[Abby Maxman @abbymaxman]

"Care is fundamental to our experience, but it is often ignored, marginalized, uncompensated, & undervalued in society"- a powerful quote from Sen @KeshaRam as she shares the truth about care work that disproportionately falls on women on this #InternationalWomensDay2024.

[Sofia Sprechmann Sineiro @SofiaSprechmann]

Women earn less, occupy fewer leadership roles, and bear the brunt during crises.
Yet, they continue to lead change in their lives and their entire communities.
May this #InternationalWomensDay and every day, we celebrate the unique impact of women's voices and leadership.

[Helen Keller Intl @HelenKellerIntl]

Thank you @ECHO_MiddleEast for this invaluable support to help people survive after the devastating earthquake last year, which devastated parts of Syria & Turkiye. Thank you also to my colleagues @CARESyriaResp @CARE_Turkey_TR @careAustria for their courageous, live-saving work.

[Tjada D'Oyen McKenna @Tjada]

Heartbroken by news reports detailing what we've feared: children are dying of starvation in Gaza. The amount of aid @mercycorps & others can provide is nowhere near enough. Gazans face starvation just miles from trucks filled with food trying to enter. https://t.co/CWkkFvoL43
