OK, a weird time to tweet again but excited we have a new framework to turn our vision @PackardFd of "a just & equitable world where both people & nature flourish" into action & meet the complex challenges ahead. Check it out: https://t.co/iFELPcDS0x
Deeply saddened to hear of @madeleine's passing. We've lost a great champion for a better world.
Honored to have supported her efforts as part of @USIP's taskforce on preventing extremism in fragile states. @nancylindborg
Deepest condolences to family & friends.
I join the celebration of these remarkable women around the world on #InternationalWomensDay and add my deep sorrow & solidarity with the courageous women of #Ukraine.
This #InternationalWomensDay, meet the remarkable women scientists, caregivers, farmers, and advocates who aren’t just dreaming of a gender equal world, they are making it a reality. 👩🏾🚀👩👦👩🏻🌾👭🌍 https://t.co/jLbjkqR2hY #IWD2022#BreakTheBias
Today we’re welcoming Dr. Katherine Wheatle @drkwheatle as our inaugural Director of Justice and Equity Grantmaking, driving our grantmaking on anti-Black racism in the U.S. and advising on how best to meet our justice and equity commitments. https://t.co/wyW7tqX267
Hard to believe we might lose rights that were upheld nearly a half century ago. All people should be able to access the health care they want, build the families they want, & make decisions about their bodies and lives. #SCOTUS#RoeVWade
🔬Why do diversity, equity, and inclusion matter in #STEM? Our Xiao-Wei Wang @TweetXW and Natalie Lake explore why - and how - we can catalyze change: https://t.co/9AYEYTrxPG. #PackardFellows#DiversityInSTEM

This. Overdue and vital. Respect the rights & livelihoods of #IndigenousPeoples & local communities and also protect forests, restore the ocean & deliver lasting climate solutions. Alignment of values and action = #TogetherForOurPlanet#CoP26
Indigenous Peoples & local communities must be recognized for their essential role in caring for our Earth & holding solutions to #ClimateChange. That’s why we’re joining the $1.7B pledge to support #IPLC rights & leadership: https://t.co/hiGxgj7FK3 #TogetherForOurPlanet#COP26
Wonderful to join the kick-off of our 2021 #PackardFellows meeting this morning. A truly inspiring group of scientists pursuing their research passions.
Our 2021 #PackardFellows meeting starts tomorrow! We are so excited to give you a peek 👀 into this growing, passionate, & inquisitive community of scientists who are taking creative approaches to their research. Be sure to tune in by following #FellowsIsland. 🏝
This is a huge opportunity to demonstrate how government can deliver for the people who need help the most; we need a #Justrecovery for a better future.
The #AmericanRescuePlan has the potential to reverse years of growing inequality. It’s time for #philanthropy to lean in to ensure that the benefits promised by #ARPA will endure. https://t.co/MzA9dUb3HP
Can Americans find common ground? A new analysis of 31 unique surveys of 85,000 voters finds that yes they do! See the 145+ policy positions with bipartisan support, from immigration to Social Security to nuclear weapons and everything in between --> https://t.co/RyEEgAEy6I
Texas #SB8 bans #abortion before most people know they’re pregnant and is devastating to women’s rights and #reproductivejustice. We're committed to a future where gender and racial justice are the norm, people control their lives and bodies, and can access abortion with dignity.
We're hiring a Communications Officer to lead our communications for our U.S.-based program areas. If you want to lead creative campaigns, shape thought leadership, & amplify our grantees to influence change, apply! https://t.co/gaXRZthw7X #philanthropy#comms4good

Thanks @pauldrisley and hope you are well. Absolutely true—sadly. With many thoughts and prayers for all the courageous Burmese aid workers and activists who continue risking their lives there.
@nancylindborg#Myanmar also reeling from coup, conflict, #COVID19 and at EXTREME risk from #ClimateCrisis . Coastal zone soils in Arakan State, from where #Rohingya were displaced, are already too salinated for arable crops, droughts are severe in Magway region. Pls add #Burma to your list.
