I celebrated Easter working at #CPD56 with amazing #SRHR advocates. So I’m very happy to celebrate #Valborg with a few days by the sea with my auntie, new books by @SaraNAhmed and @priyaparker, and hopefully sunshine!

Thank you to all our speakers and co-sponsors for making our side-event at #CDP56 possible. Young people need #CSE to safeguard their lives and faith-based actors are crucial in this matter @BjorgSandkjaer @UNFPA @NorwayUN @KirkensNodhjelp @MFAArgentina

On behalf of the 🇪🇺and aligned countries, 🇸🇪regrets that an outcome could not be reached at #CPD56. Inclusive, equitable & gender-responsive quality education & access to sexual & reproductive health & reproductive rights - to empower young persons - was underscored in statement.

As many have affirmed during #CPD56, education is a human right and this includes comprehensive sexuality education. Thanks @Fos_Feminista for subverting the use of a bus, to advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights! #SRHR

We’re at the UN for the 56th session of the Commission on Population and Development advocating for Comprehensive Sexuality Education for all young people!📢

Nirmala Gurung, represented @worldywca at #CPD2023 in N.Y. She read a powerful statement: "Global women’s movements & faith-based feminist organisations are key to act as a network for community leaders to work together to transform power structures for an equitable society."

Comprehensive sexuality education (#CSE) equips young people with the knowledge and skills to develop positive relationships, avoid unplanned pregnancies, stay in school, and make a safe transition into adulthood. Get the facts from @UNFPA: unf.pa/cse #CPD56

We / @ACTAlliance were honoured to collaborate with @UNFPA, @ArgentinaUN, @NorwayMFA and many civil society partners, to co-host the #CPD56 conversation on ‘Religion, rights and reproductive justice’. Inspiring contributions, including @Atayeshe on the power of faith & SRHR.

Delighted to join a dynamic discussion on how faith actors can transform social norms and advance #SRHR. Whatever our faith or cultural background, let us give every girl the protection, information and resources she needs to thrive. #CPD56

.@Rudelmar of  @ACTAlliance patriarchal language norms packaged in religious language make them seem that they are unchangeable. But the true language of faith is the language of justice that transcends different faith traditions. #TheRoad2Equality #CPD56
