Absolutely delighted to meet @MANAlMisned again 🇶🇦.
@UNOCHA and Qatar share a strong partnership – bridging diplomacy, financing and innovation.
Together, we translate that collaboration into principled humanitarian action and hope where it’s needed most.

.@qatarairways and the @UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) announced on Thursday the launch of a special in-flight #entertainment video that highlights the importance of humanitarian aid.
Speaking to Doha News following the announcement, UN Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Joyce Msuya, highlighted the significance of the partnership, describing it as a vital step toward fostering global solidarity at a time of growing need.
On this #WorldHumanitarianDay we urge those with power and influence to ACT:
🔴Respect the rules of war.
🔴Protect humanitarians and civilians.
🔴End impunity.
How much more suffering will you ignore?
#ActForHumanity
Today and everyday.

Wir haben das große Glück, in Freiheit und Frieden zu leben. Und wir werden daran arbeiten und uns nicht vom Weg abbringen lassen – auch nicht von denen, die in Wahrheit eine andere Gesellschaft wollen.
Wir wollen vor allem, dass Deutschland ein tolerantes Land bleibt.

Crises and conflicts are rising dramatically. With global funding in decline, @UNReliefChief Fletcher and @AussenMinDE agree: We must coordinate humanitarian aid better & use it more efficiently. As one of the largest donors, 🇩🇪 supports the reform of the humanitarian system.

Kriege kosten Billionen. Ausgaben für humanitäre Hilfe für die Zivilbevölkerung sind vergleichsweise gering.
Wir fordern nur 1% der weltweiten Rüstungsausgaben 2024 – um über 100 Millionen Leben zu retten.

New evidence reveals the catastrophic human toll of humanitarian funding cuts.
🚨 @TheLancet study finds USAID cuts could lead to 14 million deaths by 2030.
The consequences are already visible on the ground.
We cannot keep ignoring this brutal reality.
This week’s toll. ⬇️

Today we remember Frida Kahlo, a brave and inspiring artist born #OnThisDay in 1907.
Her legacy lives on as it continues to remind women and girls to be courageous and never give up on their passions.

In 1945, a small group of women helped shape the @UN, making the Charter the 1st international agreement to recognize gender equality as a human right.
While women still face barriers to equality today, they continue demanding their rights, building a more just world for all.
