Can someone explain who "they" are here? Women? And who is "your"? This means that Harvard is the cherished institutions of the chuds? I'm very confused.

Thai Lawyers for Human Rights are doing hugely important work to advocate for political activists and human rights defenders. Thank you for the insightful briefing today, and for all you are doing to champion democracy and freedom. #HRDs

🚨Time is running out.

#Gaza's on the brink of running out of food, water, electricity & critical supplies.

@WFP with @UNRWA distributed fresh bread & food to 137,000 displaced people in shelters with plans to reach 800,000+ people across #Palestine.

Here's some context🧵

[Maritza Chan @MaritzaChanV]

The UN Charter says:

"We the peoples," not "We the men."

And yet, fewer than 12% of dignitaries who addressed a high-level debate were women.

⭐️6 Heads of Stare
⭐️4 Heads of government,
⭐️1 Vice president
⭐️9 Ministers
⭐️1 Vice minister

If you can see her, you can be her!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Women are still waiting for equal opportunities and equal pay.

For equality under the law.

For their work to be valued and their opinions to count.

Gender equality is not a favour to women. It is fundamental to ensuring a better future for all.

OTD (Sept. 24) in 1996, the #CTBT opened for signature, and 71 countries signed, including the United States. Today, n-testing has become taboo; there are 187 signatories and an intl. monitoring system detects and deter n-testing. https://t.co/NtMgJ26LgN

Ethnic cleansing. The long-suffering #Armenian population of #Nagorno-Karabakh deserve better than this. The world must do better than this.

[United Nations Geneva @UNGeneva]

"Ordinary people built these weapons.

Ordinary people made them illegal under international law, and ordinary people can get rid of them.

And we will."

@azakre of @nuclearban delivers a powerful call to action against #nuclearweapons at last week's #GVAPeaceTalks.

🌐 On #InternationalDayofPeace, let's remember that peace is more than the absence of war. It's about justice, equality, and cooperation. 🤝 Let's unite our voices, advocate for nuclear abolition, and strive for a world where future generations can thrive #PeaceDay #nuclearban

While Raisi spoke of the “sanctity of family” at the UN, Islamic Republic forces attacked Javad Heydari's house with bullets and tear gas and beat the children.

[Maritza Chan @MaritzaChanV]

It is inexcusable that more resources are made available for war than for urgent, immediate needs & necessary long-term sustainable development strategies.

Let us reorient our priorities towards peace, justice, inclusion & sustainability over excessive military spending.

[ICAN @nuclearban]

Happy International Day of Peace! ☮️

As we observe this day and recognise our individual and collective responsibility to foster peace, it's important to also recognise our responsibility to help achieve the #nuclearban because peace and nuclear weapons cannot co-exist!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Our world is becoming unhinged & we seem incapable of coming together to respond.

But the @UN was created precisely for moments like this – moments of maximum danger & minimum agreement.

What we need is determination to heal divisions & forge peace.

[Nazanin Boniadi @NazaninBoniadi]

As a member of @cfr_org I was invited to attend a private meeting with Raisi on the margins of UNGA this morning. I of course declined, citing his complicity in crimes against humanity. Some say that these meetings allow us to hold the feet of dictators to the fire, but the past 44 years have shown us that not only are these meetings futile, the Islamic Republic uses them to legitimize themselves on the global stage. Continuing the same practices and expecting tyrants to change their behavior seems completely irrational. Democratic institutions hold the key to tipping the balance of power in favor of those risking everything for freedom. If you afford your members the opportunity to meet dictators behind closed doors, then at least offer them the chance to also hear from their opponents in the open.

Today was HUGE! 🌎 ☮️

At least 75,000 people took to the streets to demand Biden take bold action to #EndFossilFuels

The US military is the single largest institutional polluter in the world. It's time to address the elephant in the room!

The US calls on states to ratify a treaty that it hasn't ratified itself.
