Save the Children's New York Advocacy Office.
We work to champion children's rights and to create a world in which all children survive, learn and are protected
Always appreciate the opportunity to meet with @FilippoGrandi@Refugees .
Our team @save_children is grateful for our partnership and committed to ensuring that refugee children are protected.
I’ve personally seen how inequality & poverty affect children’s daily lives.
Today I spoke at a #UNGA event on Sustainable Financing for Future Generations, to discuss the importance of financing to achieve the #SDGs & building a peaceful future for children.
#OurCommonFuture
Grateful for the opportunity to share the stage @GobalGoalsUN with @NenaStoiljkovic@ifrc to discuss how we respond in complex crises.
In these contexts its critical that we protect children and our humanitarian workers.

I just spoke at an #UNGA event on #climate resilient health systems - I shared about how the #ClimateCrisis is a child health crisis.
World leaders need to step up & ensure that climate solutions are integrated into health policies & plans. #OurCommonFuture#ClimateAction
Thanks to @GPforEducation for convening this important dialogue at #UNGA79.
It’s critical that we leverage our partnerships and ensure financing for education.
Positive start to the #SummitoftheFuture2024 and #UNGA79 – but this is just the beginning.
We need to have all actors work closely with children to implement the Pact.

Yesterday, Janti Soeripto @SaveCEO_US, spoke at @save_children side event on #DRC at #UNGA, she said:
“This cannot stumble on as a forgotten crisis. Every access and protection indicator tells us this is not a normal day in eastern DRC. We need urgent international support"
“In #Gaza, violence & forced displacement continues & the ability for children to access the basics needed for survival & dignity remains constrained. I urge world leaders to listen to what children say, to hear their hopes & demands.” @save_children CEO @ingerashing, at #UNGA
Nicole,17, & Anai,16, will be speaking up at the UN #SummitoftheFuture💪
Children are demanding change & leading us to a better world
We call on leaders to listen to children & put their rights at the centre of decision-making.
Their futures depend on it #OurCommonFuture
STATEMENT on Pact for the Future, @save_children CEO @ingerashing said: “Now the Pact has been adopted, it’s critical that world leaders put children’s rights at the centre of policies and programmes."

Over 200 schools in #Gaza have been attacked since Oct & 90% have been damaged, with the latest Israeli airstrikes on 2 schools reportedly killing 30 people, over 80% children⚠️
#Schools are protected by international humanitarian law. Killing children must never be normalised.
#SummitoftheFuture is approaching! 🌍 Civil society is vocal about addressing real needs. Check out @CIVICUSalliance's discussion with our New York Office Advocacy Advisor. 💬

Thank you @BCMWallace_UN, for a strong statement on behalf of the Group of Friends of Children & the #SDGs at #HLPF2024. The message is clear: "What is needed now is an extraordinary and concerted effort to scale up policies and investments for children."
Count on our support!
The recent attacks on schools and hospitals in #Gaza are horrific⚠️
The healthcare and education systems are being decimated before our eyes.
Children cannot continue to be at the forefront of this conflict.
Hospitals and schools should never be targets. #CeasefireNow
Four schools have reportedly been bombed in 4 days with casualty numbers unclear as Israeli strikes on #Gaza intensify.
Children shouldn’t be in danger as they play football & shelter in schools. Constant child casualties can't be considered collateral.
We need a #CeasefireNow
Join our virtual #HLPF2024 side event, "Meaningful Reporting on the SDGs with and for Children."
You will hear directly from children about their experience with VNR reporting & their perceptions of the SDGs.

As the negotiations on #DoFG continue, the world is facing a child rights crisis, with escalating wars, violence, & impact of the climate crisis.
Children shared their hopes in recent consultations on the Declaration on #FutureGenerations. #OurCommonAgenda
With @CARE & @Oxfam we call for immediate release of staff detained a month ago by authorities in north #Yemen.
"To help millions of Yemenis in need of assistance, staff need to be able to carry out their duties safely & without fear of arbitrary arrest."
