“The Sahel is one of the toughest places to be a child today, yet it’s getting the least of the world’s attention,” said @unicefchief following a three-day visit to Burkina Faso.

Have just arrived to Chad and looking forward to meeting with children and families to learn more about the issues that confront children here, and to continue our work with the Government to deliver on our shared goal of furthering the lives of all children in Chad.

Growing up in a wealthy country does not guarantee a happy and healthy childhood.

Some of the wealthiest countries have seen significant declines in children's academic performance, mental health and physical health.

@UNICEFSocPolicy @globalcoalition @save_children @AfricanChildFrm @spriglobal @WorldVision @yloxford @Charlot73003022 @Solaengilberts @oliver_fiala Models that prove the efficacy of transformative strategies, and actions for change contribute to learning, influencing, and motivating other less progressive economies to strive for better results. It is heartwarming to see a reduction in child poverty from these countries.

Child poverty is neither inevitable nor immune to efforts to address it.

The new @globalcoalition report shows expanding social protection coverage, including cash transfers and investments in health, education, water, and sanitation, has been effective: https://t.co/jaAQHoFj0u

Children in Gaza have again been plunged into a cycle of deadly violence and deprivation.

The world must not stand by and allow the killing and suffering of children to continue.

Japan is transitioning to a new equilibrium. Growth is expected to accelerate in 2025 supported by rising wages. Headline inflation should continue to move toward BoJ’s target. Fiscal consolidation remains key to ensure debt sustainability. https://t.co/f2BIfgClUV

What are bonds and why are they important? Our latest video breaks down the basics.

[Natalia Winder Rossi @Nwinderrossi]

Sincere thanks for the great discussion and for @ncwegypt commitment to girls empowerment and child protection. Looking forward to furthering our partnership for #everychild

[Catherine Russell @unicefchief]

Funding cuts by numerous donor countries will limit UNICEF’s ability to reach millions of children in dire need.

UNICEF implores all donors to continue to fund critical aid programs for the world’s children.

We cannot fail them now.👇 https://t.co/rxdDZmkHEK

[Natalia Winder Rossi @Nwinderrossi]

I am every day humbled by the impact of our work and commitment at @UNICEF. When children’s future and opportunities are at risk, who will act? I AM. And YOU can too. Lets turn challenges into opportunities for kids in conflict and poverty. @UNICEF_Egypt

A sustainable future begins with social protection.

Let’s expand coverage to the 1.8 billion children currently uncovered and ensure no child is left behind.

“I am scared, exhausted, and expecting the worst,” we were told by a 72-year-old woman in Gaza City.

She added: “Many older people like us stayed behind and are left to our fate.”

We will continue to emphasize this tirelessly❗

Wars have rules that must be respected by all sides.

Protecting civilians and civilian objects - including hospitals, schools and shelters - is NOT negotiable.

Humanitarians must be able to safely deliver aid. #NotATarget

Yesterday, Patrick Hara from @mofnpzambia highlighted how Zambia protected and expanded social sector spending by removing fuel subsidies—an initiative that addresses the environmental and social dimensions of sustainable development.👏

The climate crisis affects every country and sector, but the poorest are hit the hardest. Natural disasters push 26M people into poverty every year.

Last year, we provided $12B for climate adaptation & resilience. https://t.co/CyA8SFm9mi #ClimateActionWBG #UNGA

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

Now is the time to invest in preparing for the pandemics of the future, and to strengthen the global architecture for health emergency preparedness and response.

The @Pandemic_Fund is a critical component of that architecture. My thanks to Ajay Banga for your partnership, and to @SecYellen and all ministers for their commitment and support for the Fund.

@WHO is proud to be part of the Fund, and to provide technical leadership. #UNGA
