Great to join @VodafoneFdn to discuss the private sector's role in supporting refugees with access to education and technology. Our Instant Network Schools programme is providing more than 261,000 students with the digital tools for them to be the leaders of tomorrow.

The catastrophic flooding in Libya has caused thousands of deaths, shattered lives and forced displacement. We’re providing emergency assistance to those affected, but there is much more to be done, and we need help to scale up our response. unh.cr/65026a410

Since the war in Sudan started 2 months ago, close to 100,000 South Sudanese have been compelled to return to their country. I met families transiting in Renk & Malakal, now wishing to return to their places of origin & rebuild their future. With support, they will succeed.

Forcibly displaced people may have contributed the least to climate change, but are among those leading the way in the fight against it. This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we recognize their work in creating a cleaner and better home for everyone. Climate action is on all of us.

In Goma & Beni, in North Kivu, @GillianTriggs and I met displaced persons who have gone through years of repeated displacements. They were appreciative of the generosity of their hosts & of the assistance received but were eager to see peace and return to their homes.
