Look to see the US position improve dramatically as Biden’s IRA investment gets traction.

[Social Progress @socprogress]

New #JustTransition score shows that the US is ranked far behind its peers and competitors. At 127th out of 158 countries, the US is worse than China at 108th and India at 77th. Full results: https://t.co/F4nIgcbyMU

@45needstogo1 A class act—and a true American!! I have had the same experience, with President Carter beaming that magnificent smile on all—

[Laura Bassett @LEBassett]

A teacher who was murdered in the Uvalde shooting last week, and her husband who died the next day of a grief heart attack, had their funerals today. Then 3 active shootings happened simultaneously tonight, and we had to decide whether to feature all 3 or focus on the deadliest.

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

A monumental loss to all who loved this extraordinary man: his family, colleagues, patients, champions, students—and the untold millions whose lives he touched and transformed. Devastating.

[Jeffrey Skoll @jeffskoll]

This is shocking. Paul was an inspiration for our community of social entrepreneurs. He will be greatly missed!

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

@GirlsNotBrides, founded as Arch chaired @TheElders, is a powerful manifestation of that big heart and steely determination #Tutu #TutuLegacy

[Mabel van Oranje @MabelvanOranje]

Arch used his big heart, steely determination and powerful sense of humour to serve the cause of justice, equality and forgiveness. #Tutu

This is how I will remember him.

@G_MachelTrust Give yourself the gift of Graca’s tribute to her beloved friend and partner in arms—the embracing arms of justice and love—the magnificent Archbishop Tutu; then resolve to take up her challenge to carry his legacy on. Ubuntu.

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

How blessed I am to have come to know our beloved Arch, with @jeffskoll and the @Elders family. A moment to reflect and renew faith in humanity’s capacity for goodness.

[The Elders @TheElders]

The Elders are deeply saddened at the passing of our founding Chair and dear friend Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Leah and their family.

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

Mourning with the world, and @TheElders, the loss of a moral giant: Archbishop Desmond Tutu was made for goodness, as he loved to say, and reminds us of all we can be and do.

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

No surprise to half the world’s population!

[Luke Greeves @Luke_Greeves]

The new #SocialProgress Index finds that the top four countries with the highest levels of social progress had female heads of state. See the full report at https://t.co/hF38098PYZ

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

Evidence to turn blah blah blah into meaningful commitments

[Social Progress @socprogress]

Don’t miss our CEO’s @shepleygreen livestream presenting the 2021 Social Progress Index! He’ll share remarkable results that could be critical for #COP26 decision-making. #SocialProgress #Sustainability #SDGs

[Social Progress @socprogress]

The new #SocialProgress Index shows the world is making progress, but not across the board.

Personal rights have declined in more than 2/3 of countries since 2011, a worrying trend in every geography and level of development.

#socialprogress data for this year’s index lays bare the core fallacy of development

No better source of wisdom and better way to rekindle hope than this series. Proud to have posted a response to @raad_zeid and his reflections on the enduring human quest for justice!

[The Elders @TheElders]

What kind of leadership do we need in these unprecedented times to build a better future?

Watch talks from @JuanManSantos on ‘peace’; Hina Jilani on ‘justice’; @Raad_Zeid on ‘human rights’; and Mary Robinson on ‘our shared challenges’: https://t.co/GhB6Y0fcGN

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

No one better to lead this fight for life and justice; a brilliant choice!

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

I’m honored to be nominated to lead global health development at @USAID, including for COVID. With more COVID deaths worldwide in the first half of 2021 than in all of 2020, I’m grateful for the chance to help end this crisis and to re-strengthen public health systems worldwide.

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

Proud to be part of @TheElders #StateOfHope series, launching on 12 July. I can use the inspiration and wisdom—you, too??

[The Elders @TheElders]

“Hope is the most precious commodity that humanity possesses.” - Graça Machel

From 12 July 2021, The Elders will embark on a week of online talks and discussions about the global state of #hope.

Superb new leader for @MiC_Global to have Luke take on the UK director role!

[Tim Dixon @dixontim]

Excited to welcome @LukeTryl to the @MiC_Global team as our UK director, starting in June. In a strong field of applicants, the enthusiasm for Luke from past colleagues in his different roles knocked our socks off!

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

"Now my oxygen level is 50, and the guard at the Balrampur hospital is not letting me enter.”

Such a disturbing picture of COVID overwhelming Indian hospitals. This journalist, finding no help, live tweeted his declining oxygen levels until he died. https://t.co/qdV7qBY2Bc

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

@CeresNews Heartening, and right!

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

An important piece! I share @SlaughterAM ‘s rage...every bridge, road and port is only built by institutions, and the network of care and health institutions are equally vital to revitalizing our economy and American society.

[New York Times Opinion @nytopinion]

"I have spent the past two weeks reading about the infrastructure debate with mounting rage," writes @SlaughterAM, and the reason is simple. https://t.co/TmBoKgetUe

[Sally Osberg @SallyOsberg]

Answering this call to arms would be historic—in the best possible way—for the Biden administration

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

We have gone big to vaccinate the US. We need to undertake exactly such an effort abroad: an all-out response for an all-in global vaccination campaign.

We have the production know-how, the logistics expertise, and the ability to rally the world.
