Our future.
Our responsibility.
She is our ocean. 🌊

@Refugees@antonioguterres@anton_leis@EdemWosornu Congratulations on these important appointments!

She championed women's rights, equal pay for equal work, and above all, women's right to vote along with the suffragettes in the U.S.
The Sustainable Development Goals, agreed by all @UN member countries, are our blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable world.
This Valentine's Day, we can all recommit to the 17 Goals and show love to our planet and all its people. https://t.co/n5RdJ5MYVC
