Over the past four decades, education has contributed to half of global economic growth, two-thirds of income growth among the world’s poorest and 40% of global extreme poverty reduction.
It’s not time to let the guard down.

As global aid is under pressure, @JozefSikela and
@EU_Partnerships commitment to prioritize education is encouraging. Education is an investment in economic growth, stability & opportunity. #TeamEurope's leadership is key. #FundEducation #GlobalGateway

We can't put the future on hold any longer: #AnswerTheCall and #FundEducation

We must catch the boy child too.
Yes we will not stop driving the girls’ rights agenda - but the race to get the boys and men should be equally promoted. To

Girls risk becoming “invisible” victims as a combination of the #ClimateCrisis, conflict in #Ukraine and other countries, and economic shocks.
I spoke to @cgtnafrica on what is happening to girls in the #HornofAfrica and #Sahel
New findings show that in at least seven African countries, more girls and women are being exposed to early, forced marriages and sexual violence including rape as a result of the global food shortage.

A fiery angry cloud wrapped us in as we concluded the day’s negotiations at #Cop27 in Egypt today.
There won’t be any better sign. We must act now! Mother Earth is on edge.
@antonioguterres @POTUS @UN @UNFCCC
‘We are here and we are able, not only as beneficiaries but as experts and partners to climate action. Include us meaningfully’ young activists at #Cop27 are bold with their demands and experiences. #RwandaGov #LossandDamage
@angietouch speaks about @PlanGlobal interventions that empower young people to be part of climate change conversations. Young people need to be integral part of any climate action @PlanMEESA @PlanAULiaison #COP27 @RwandaGov #GreenRwanda #InvestInRwanda
