No child should ever fear going to school. But today millions do. Attacks on schools have deprived millions of children of their right to an education. Children, and their education, must always be protected. #UniteToProtect

The attacks on residential towers in #Gaza have displaced dozens of families, many left on the streets without shelter or basic necessities. With humanitarian access severely restricted, the suffering of already displaced persons is only deepening. We need a #CeasefireNow.

Gender equality is not a favour to women & girls. It is essential for dignity & justice for all. Yet, poverty, war, climate disasters & barriers continue to hinder progress. We need to #ActNow to empower all women & girls and achieve true equality in our societies.
