Hjertelig velkommen til Hedda Kise som rådgiver i @NORCAPweb @flyktninghjelp tv2.no/underholdning/…


108.4m ppl displaced by persecution & conflict in 2022 - highest figure ever recorded. Too little financial support is dedicated to prevent displacement & conflict. Donors must step-up support to strengthen democratic institutions, climate adaption and peacekeeping.

Women make up half of Africa’s farmers, but it’s mainly men who make the decisions on how to address the needs of communities impacted by #ClimateChange. We are working with @WFP @icpac_igad @UNDP to change this bit.ly/3Y7Rpha

In Ukraine too many communities in frontline areas or under Russian control have received virtually no assistance since the war began in February. Many will have no heat for the entire winter. Russia must provide safe passage for aid agencies. nrc.no/news/2022/nove…

#COP27: Each Party to the #ParisAgreement is required to set a plan to cut emissions - now cities must step-up to the energy crisis. Access to power for the displaced and vulnerable people is critical to fight poverty and boost empowerment #SDG7 @UNHABITAT @NORCAPweb @noradno

#COP27: Ensuring access to climate information is key to strengthen communities resilience. But information in itself is not enough, we need to make sure people have the means and the opportunity to act on the information they receive @NORCAPBenedicte @icpac_igad @bbcmediaaction

#COP27: Access to clean & affordable energy is critical for people's health and livelihoods, as well as the environment. However, 80% of the world's displaced people lack it. @EnergyGPA @ndcpartnership

"En rik nasjon som ikke kan bruke 1kr av hver 100-lapp den tjener til å dele med mennesker som mangler mat, medisiner & tak over hodet, er fattig på mer enn penger. La oss vise at vi er et rikt land," sa @Arbeiderpartiet s #groharlembrundland i 1996. Hva skjedde @jonasgahrstore ?
