We welcome all efforts to increase the amount and type of aid delivered for the people of Gaza, whether by air, sea or, most importantly, land.

We will continue to advocate for principled and safe aid delivery.

The desire to act, help & save lives calls to my colleagues around the world.

Yet, too often, aid workers cannot respond or are forced to make sacrifices.

Inaction is mainly linked to underfunding, but the is paid in human sufferings.

We cannot let this happen.

We asked photojournalists in Gaza to share images, taken during the war, that the world should not forget.

In 1994, one million children, women & men were killed in the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda.

We will never forget the victims.

Nor will we ever forget the bravery & resilience of those who survived, whose courage & willingness to forgive remain a burst of light & hope.

From a pinch of empowerment, a dash of dignity or a sprinkle psychosocial support - the recipe for better health can look different to everyone.

We all deserve it, but not everyone has it.

On , letโ€™s fight for others to gain access to a healthy mind, body & soul.

The end of this war is so long overdue.

It is not enough for six months of war to be a moment of remembrance and mourning.

It must also spur a collective determination that there be a reckoning for this betrayal of humanity.

I still remember the children's smiles and hopeful faces from my visit in .

The UN-brokered truce has created conditions for these children to chase their dreams. But hunger and malnutrition is rising again.

We must not let this hard-earned progress in Yemen unravel.

Severe seasonal droughts have impacted every decade since 1953.

An plan to forecast drought seasons and pre-arrange funding reduced the impact of droughts on over 900,000 people.

Acting earlier saves lives and livelihoods.

The conflict in northern displaced over 91,000 people in just a few months.

New CERF - The UN's emergency fund funding of $6 million will help meet their basic needs.

I met some of the displaced families in Cabo Delgado last year. Their resourcefulness is remarkable.
