Thanks to UN Secretary General and future colleagues for warm welcome and a clear sense of the challenges ahead, on a busy day. Looking forward to getting started on 18th November, and heading straight to the field to be with humanitarian movement and those we serve.
She can, and she did. Thank you Marina @ArtistisPresent for the reminder that, across the world and with no cultural barriers, we all care enough to stop. And to think. As people in Sudan, Gaza, Haiti and elsewhere continue to face daily horrors, that’s the least we can do.
Can Marina Abramović get Glastonbury to be silent for seven minutes? theguardian.com/artanddesign/a…
A sobering assessment from @theipcinfo on #Sudan. Food insecurity is the worst it's ever been in the country. Over 25M people face high levels of acute hunger, including 755K in catastrophic conditions and 8.5M in emergency levels. This could have been avoided.
Thank you, Martin, for joining us virtually at @WFP to discuss the many humanitarian challenges that lay ahead, and how @UN agencies like ours will continue to make a difference. It has been a privilege to serve with you. Thank you for your wisdom, compassion & friendship.
Such a delightful surprise from @ACANU_Geneva! My heartfelt gratitude to our press partners for spotlighting @UNOCHA’s humanitarian efforts and amplifying the voices of those often unheard.
#OCHA @UNGeneva @UN_Valovaya @JensLaerke @UN @antonioguterres Last exclusive briefing of 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗶𝘁𝗵𝘀 as Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs & Emergency Relief Coordinator/Appointed head @UNOCHA in May 2021, he will leave his job 30 June 2024
We are not abandoning the people of #Gaza. But we fail them every time we’re not able to get aid to those who need it. We need safety and security – for this, we need all hands on deck. My interview with @UN_News_Centre: bit.ly/4cDJmz6
Acute malnutrition is increasing rapidly in northeast #Nigeria and food insecurity has reached the highest level in 7 years. To provide immediate support to the most vulnerable, I’ve allocated $11 million from @UNCERF This is a start - more support is needed.
Testaments from Mamadou and many others are why we launched the Flagship Initiative. People want to shape their own future. It’s time to listen better and let local communities guide our humanitarian response and action. bit.ly/4bvpEF5
I have spent much of my career in or on the edges of war zones, but nothing quite prepared me for the breadth and depth of human suffering I have witnessed in my three years as the United Nations’ humanitarian chief. My guest essay in @nytimes: nytimes.com/2024/06/17/opi…
We take pride in @UNCERF's unmatched agility, making us one of the fastest responders to crises. Its focus on early action, community resilience and accountability is crucial as resources dwindle and challenges mount. We rely on our donors' support as we #InvestInHumanity.
The world's eyes are on Al Fasher, #Sudan – where the humanitarian nightmare is worsening by the hour. I hope today's Security Council resolution will ease the suffering of civilians there. They must be protected, aid must be able to reach them, and the fighting must stop now.
Another year with the humanitarian system stretched to its limits. Despite enormous challenges, we reached over 128M people. This underscores our community's incredible determination, dedication and ingenuity. ▶️ See how we're revitalizing our response: bit.ly/3z2R0UQ
Congratulations @AnacludiaRossb1 on your appointment as the new @UNHABITAT Executive Director. Warm welcome to the @IASCCH family. We look forward to collaborating with you on fostering community resilience to address humanitarian needs.
Anacláudia Marinheiro Centeno Rossbach from Brazil has been appointed as the new Executive Director of UN-Habitat! With a strong background in housing, urban development and inclusion, she is set to lead us towards a brighter urban future. loom.ly/5wozd68
Famine in the 21st century is a preventable scourge. #G7 leaders can and must wield their influence to help stop it. Nowhere is the choice between inaction and oblivion so clear as in #Gaza and #Sudan. Read my statement: unocha.org/news/g7-leader…
Today marks the 1st day of the @UNOCHA Donor Support Group High Level Meeting in 🇱🇺. We look forward to leading discussions on #OCHA’s role in coordinating & advocating for a more effective, efficient & sustainable humanitarian system one last time as Chair of the ODSG. #LuxAid
I had the honour of briefing on the outcomes of the Urgent Humanitarian Response for Gaza High-Level Conference co-hosted by #Jordan, #Egypt & @UN A permanent ceasefire is crucial. Humanitarian aid must enter #Gaza unobstructed to effectively address urgent needs. #ActionforGaza
Humanitarians have reached 950K people in #Myanmar so far in 2024, but with the response plan only 12% funded, many have not received the comprehensive support they require. With 18.6M people needing assistance, I call on the international community to urgently increase support.
The escalating violence in #Sudan's Al Fasher is dealing a crushing blow to civilians at their most vulnerable. I am horrified by news of the RSF attack on South Hospital. The fighting, looting and atrocities we are seeing in Sudan over and over again – they must stop now.
