Fruitful meeting with Minister @aniellefranco. I welcome her dynamism and efforts by her Ministry and civil society to ensure meaningful participation of affected communities to #FightRacism. Looking forward to enhancing our cooperation to advance racial equality in Brazil.
Honoured to be here today with leaders, human rights defenders & anti-racism activists at the 3rd session of the Permanent Forum on People of African Descent. Your vibrant & assertive presence is a resounding call for racial justice, equity, reparations, dignity & human rights.
As we mark 30yrs since the Rwanda genocide against the Tutsi, we honour all victims & pay tribute to the bravery & resilience of survivors The intl community must take stock of the gravity of genocidal acts & do everything in its power to #PreventGenocide & ensure accountability
By 2050, 1 in 6 people will be over 65 Yet as our lifespans extend, social systems are failing to keep up & leaving millions of older persons behind We need inclusive support systems so that everyone– no matter their gender, life stage or ability- can age with dignity & purpose

No words can do justice to the horrors that people in #Gaza are living in since the war began six months ago. The lives of 2 million people were turned upside down, often overnight. Many lost the most precious: their loved ones. Everything is in short supply except for…

"The Israeli military response in #Gaza has been brutal, and there is growing evidence of the systematic violation of international [humanitarian] law, including the commission of war crimes and possibly other atrocity crimes." @NadaNashif #IHL ohchr.org/en/statements-…
The attack on @WCKitchen aid workers in #Gaza is not an isolated incident. "All parties to the conflict, including the Government of Israel, must respect international humanitarian law, which prohibits the targeting of humanitarian personnel." Jamie McGoldrick's statement 👇
Destruction of Al-Shifa Hospital - #Gaza's largest health facility - has ripped the heart out of the health system. Only 10/36 hospitals remain partially functional. Left without vital health care, ultimately it's civilians who will pay the price. We repeat: health must not…
.@volker_turk condemns killing of @WCKitchen team in #Gaza. Like other humanitarian workers, they were performing urgent lifesaving work. This attack must be independently & fully investigated. Accountability is essential. Israel must respect & protect all humanitarian workers.
People in #Gaza are: 🔺 Trapped 🔺 Bombed 🔺 Killed 🔺 Injured 🔺 Displaced 🔺 Starved Humanitarians are facing insurmountable challenges, navigating a brutal obstacle course, to reach those in desperate need. Israel's restrictions on aid must be lifted. The war must stop. ⬇️
"Strong leadership is essential in pursuing reparatory justice for the legacies of enslavement and colonialism," said @UNHumanRights deputy chief @NadaNashif at a @UN Human Rights Council discussion on ways to eliminate racial discrimination. #HRC55
#WestBank "The line between settler violence and State violence has further blurred, including violence with the declared intent to forcibly transfer Palestinians from their land." @NadaNashif at the 55th session of the #HRC 👇 ohchr.org/en/statements-…
The Security Council just approved a long-awaited resolution on Gaza, demanding an immediate ceasefire, and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages. This resolution must be implemented. Failure would be unforgivable.
On Monday’s #RememberSlavery Day, we pay tribute to those who suffered and resisted oppression. Join us in honouring the victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade by advocating for equality and justice for all. un.org/en/remembersla…
The IFRC is deeply saddened by the tragic loss of another volunteer of Palestine Red Crescent @PalestineRCS. Ameer Sobhi Abu Aysha, a member of the @PalestineRCS emergency operations room in Gaza was killed while on duty, working at Al-Amal Hospital in Khan Yunis. We reiterate…

Everyone is originally from Africa, and this book is therefore for everyone. Thank you all for your support!
The CEIRPP Bureau conveyed their appreciation for the strong voice of the UN High Commissioner of Human Rights and Office in ensuring that violations of human rights of the Palestinian people are addressed 🕊️ #IniDiplomasi
Iftar in the ruins of Fakhri Abu Diab’s house in Bustan, occupied East Jerusalem. The homes of several families here have been demolished by Israeli authorities. This injustice must stop. Norway supports local organisations helping Palestinians suffering human rights violations
My respect for an extraordinary run heading @UNOCHA. I have known @UNReliefChief since first encountering him in 1980 on the Thai-Cambodian border struggling under a UNICEF rice bag. No humanitarian hall of fame would be complete without him.
After 3 years on the job, I have informed @antonioguterres of my intention to step down in June. To everyone at @UNOCHA, it's been the privilege of my life. I am deeply in your debt. To all partners and supporters, thank you for championing the cause of people in crises.
Humanitarians working in Gaza shared with me the extremely challenging environment they work in. Some of them, with decades of experience, said they have never encountered a situation as difficult as this. Aid workers need resources, access & safety - now.
Confiscation of occupied land violates the international law. The EU will not recognise changes to the 1967 borders, including in Jerusalem, unless agreed by the parties. Such illegal actions only serve to fuel tensions & undermine Israel’s security, which the EU is committed to.

Today I met with Palestinian civilians at the General Hospital in Al Arish, Egypt. It’s impossible not to feel heartbroken by the accounts of those injured or separated from their families. It’s time for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. It’s time to silence the guns.
People in #Gaza are starving. 🛑 Over 2.1 million people across the #GazaStrip face crisis levels of food insecurity or worse. 🛑 Half the population is struggling with catastrophic hunger. 🛑 Children are dying of dehydration & malnutrition. Famine is imminent. #CeasefireNOW
Very productive & inspiring discussions among #IASC Deputy Humanitarian Chiefs this p.m. Concrete outcomes & commitments: ➡Joint advocacy to bolster operations ➡Address IDPs specific needs ➡Strengthen collaboration w/devel. actors ➡Preserve humanitarian space & principles
@NadaNashif it was nice meeting &hosting you and your colleagues. @OHCHRKENYA whom are our partners as Grassroots Human Rights Defenders .Powerful deliberations.
Inspiring exchanges w/civil society & #HumanRightsDefenders on their work & partnership w/ @OHCHRKENYA. In #Kenya & beyond, #CivilSociety plays vital role in governance, development, peace & security, climate action - ensuring participation, non-discrimination & accountability.
Today @HakiKNCHR received The United Nations Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Ms. Nada Al- Nashif for a courtesy call to discuss the various areas of partnership and work as well as the priority human rights issues in Kenya. #hakikwawotekilawakati
As we saw during the Cold War, multilateral cooperation is possible even during times of confrontation. That is the challenge today: finding the common ground where a renewed, robust multilateralism can advance in an age of rivalries. My reflections for @CrisisGroup:
“Values like liberalism and democracy are under threat.” @OpenSociety President and @CrisisGroup co-founder @malloch_brown talks about the crisis of multilateralism.
"I have no idea what a safe place means in the📍#GazaStrip" @UNLazzarini: "People have been moved from one place to another. Each time they were told to go to a given place, being told it will be a safer place, it has been proven the place was not safe."
A day with #HumanRights in focus for our annual @NorwayMFA @UNHumanRights consultations. 🇳🇴 will always #StandUp4HumanRights Thank you @volker_turk and team for a deep dive in to challenges - and possibilities @NorwayInGeneva @NorwayAmbUNOG
Exactly 40 years ago to this day I started my humanitarian journey as a @CatholicRelief volunteer in Thailand, working with Cambodian refugees. And I will keep walking that road, alongside my colleagues, striving to help people continue to hope when everything else is lost.

Can you elaborate? To my best knowledge no property in lebanon was ever confiscated. If your home was in Wadi Abou Jamil and it was part of the Solidere reconstruction project you received a financial settlement, the same whatever your religion. I am sitting next to a friend…
