A horrific figure: 45 million people are now internally displaced by conflict & violence. Politicians, generals & diplomats must rise seek ceasefires, not guns & grenades. Political violence is utterly senseless in this coronavirus era.

These are unprecedented times & for the global south, the economic stakes couldn't be higher. Reflecting on #WBGMeetings, @ma_jose_romero calls for bolder action from @worldbank & @IMFnews that ties emergency responses to longer-term actions ➡️ bit.ly/2VpWVND #Covid19
"The meetings were a moment for these institutions to reinvigorate multilateral cooperation and increase their legitimacy. In the end, geopolitical battles limited their ambition. We were hoping for bold solutions, but instead we got a number of sticking plasters." María José Romero, Policy and Advocacy Manager, Eurodad

The pandemic is often described as an "unimaginable" catastrophe. What the crisis reveals, though, is not the unreality of our present moment, but the illusions it shatters, @charles_yu writes. on.theatln.tc/8k6yS97

Was on @Channel4News just now on lamentable decision of USA President to defund @WHO in middle of worst pandemic in over a century. WHO's role in global health leadership is never more critical than at a time like this. It needs support, not brickbats. @globalhlthtwit @DrTedros
