Natural disasters aren’t natural. A storm doesn’t decide who has insurance, savings or somewhere safe to go. People built the systems that leave others exposed. People can change them.

Care keeps the world running, yet only 6% of domestic workers globally are comprehensively covered by social protection. Governments must invest in public services and protect workers’ rights.
We call for care to be a human right and a public good.

Fifteen years after ILO Convention 189 was adopted, only 40 countries have ratified it. The Convention recognises domestic workers’ rights and is in force in 38 countries.
Governments must implement international labour standards and end exclusion from labour protections.

Oxfam’s latest findings expose how the ultra-rich are responsible for a disproportionate share of carbon pollution, while ordinary people bear the brunt of the resulting floods, fires and famine.
The numbers are staggering. Keep scrolling for more 🧵

The richest 0.1% emit more carbon than the poorest 3.5 billion people combined. Climate disasters are widening inequality, with poorer & marginalized communities suffering the greatest impacts. Read @Oxfam's new report ahead of #COP31 bit.ly/48kB2UB #climatejustice
Digital labour platforms offering cleaning and homecare grew fivefold between 2010 and 2025. Governments must ensure digitalisation does not become another loophole for stripping workers of their rights.

New research from @Oxfam shows the wealthiest 0.1% are making money from the climate crisis their pollution has caused, while buying protection for themselves.

When domestic workers organise, they win rights. Collective action helped secure ILO Convention 189 in 2011. Governments must protect workers’ freedom to organise and bargain collectively.

Ten months after the ceasefire, more than 20,000 people remain displaced in Cambodia.Families want to return home, but many still cannot do so safely. They need more than promises.They need action, support, and a path home. shorturl.at/iJA5I

Cambodia-Thailand border conflict’s ceasefire alone is not enough. Thousands of families still cannot return home. Their land is occupied & unsafe. They need sustained support to rebuild livelihoods & dignity.

Around 79% of women domestic workers globally are informally employed, while 36% are completely excluded from national labour laws. Governments must end this exclusion and guarantee their rights.

Same fire. Different disaster. Wealth shapes who can escape, rebuild or profit. Neighbours in France fought to save their community. Governments must make rich polluters fund protection and recovery.

Our new report - Disaster Divide - shows how climate disasters are not experienced equally. The rich can insulate themselves from climate disasters, while others cannot.

The super-rich contribute disproportionately to our #ClimateCrisis but are insulated from its effects. Meanwhile, the many pay the price. @Oxfam's new report makes the case that it doesn't have to be that way. Learn more about #ClimateJustice!

Domestic work is essential, yet remains undervalued. Colonial, neo-liberal and patriarchal inequalities continue to shape who does this work and under what conditions.
Governments must challenge the systems that devalue and exploit domestic workers.

A storm doesn’t decide who can afford to leave or who profits from rebuilding. Governments can change both. Read Oxfam’s new report and demand action: oxfam.org/en/disaster-divide… #DisasterDivide #MakeRichPollutersPay
“Who tells our story?” — Crismar Lujano on EQUALS
Stereotypes travel across borders and entrench power. Changing who tells stories is as important as changing policy.

Only 6% of domestic workers globally are comprehensively covered by social protection. Healthcare, pensions and protection against workplace injury must be rights, not privileges.

Domestic workers make up 25% of the world’s care workforce, sustaining households, communities and economies. It’s time to recognise domestic work as work like any other.

Governments must stop disaster profiteering and protect people’s access to food. Read Oxfam’s latest report, #DisasterDivide: oxfam.org/en/disaster-divide…

Digital labour platforms offering domestic services grew fivefold between 2010 and 2025. But workers can still be left without basic rights while companies profit from their labour. Governments must guarantee fair pay and social protection.

We hear how much billionaires are worth. We hear less about what their investments cost everyone else.
Communities shouldn’t have to absorb the damage while investors keep the returns. Change the rules. Hold polluters accountable. #MakeRichPollutersPay makerichpolluterspay.org/tak…
