Fully support Ambassador of Ukraine to Australia Vasyl Myroshnychenko calls for more humanitarian aid at National Press Club. The generosity of Australians has meant World Vision has been on the ground for two years helping children who are affected. Important work and more to do.

Currently travelling to look at the amazing work being done & yet to happen in #Ukraine. I've been keeping a diary so anyone interested can see first hand what my role at World Vision AUS entails when I'm visiting places like Ukraine. Follow on Tiktok: bit.ly/4ahYSPN

Great to chat this morning Patricia Karvelas. Thank you for letting me shine a light on the support for women & kids in #Ukraine and how World Vision AUS and the Ukraine Crisis Team are working in the area. abc.net.au/listen/program…

I shared my experiences of meeting families using bunkers as ‘child friendly spaces’ with Laura Jayes on Sky News Australia this morning. Sirens outside, kids playing underground. Life in #Ukraine. youtube.com/watch?v=ieL9Ht…

Back into #Kyiv from Dnipro to air raid sirens after yesterday’s missile attack, something Ukrainians are sadly used to. Life goes on.

This is one of the community centres we support #Kyiv. We take a holistic approach to the support of families by creating safe spaces for kids to learn and have fun, whilst also giving mums the opportunity to share in activities and conversation.

.Rob Harris joined me in #Ukraine for his in-depth piece in today’s The Sydney Morning Herald & The Age. We shouldn't feel helpless or that it's too far away when we see what’s happening, World Vision AUS is on the ground helping children. smh.com.au/world/europe/d…

Another great piece from Rob Harris in The Age & The Sydney Morning Herald. Rob spoke with some of the World Vision #Ukraine Crisis Response team about their journeys from business owners to crisis support workers. smh.com.au/world/europe/a…

Taking a moment for Zomi, her World Central Kitchen colleagues and everyone affected by their deaths. I spoke with @hollystearnes on Sky News Australia earlier today. You can watch it at this link: bit.ly/SkyNewsAustApr3

Sudan is a crisis that is only getting worse. #WorldVision is on the ground doing what we can to help those in need. I chatted with Laura Jayes on Sky News Australia. skynews.com.au/world-news/glo…

The budget is a display of Australian generosity in action. Despite the pressures on the Aus Govt, we are seeing a $200m increase in aid over 4 years. Aid around the world is so important right now. I chatted with Laura Jayes on Sky News Australia this morning. skynews.com.au/australia-news…

Over the last 30 years I’ve had many colleagues kidnapped, wounded, attacked or threatened at gun point, including myself, and a few tragically killed. Anything we can do to make life safer for our aid workers is welcome. Thank you for your leadership Senator Penny Wong.

Just arrived in Bangkok to see some of the devastation caused by the earthquake in #Thailand & #Myanmar last week. Millions will be affected—and so many were already in need before this disaster. You can donate or learn more about child sponsorship here: worldvision.com.au/global-issues/…

Is the aid sector ready for zero-based funding? World Vision AUS CEO Daniel Wordsworth argues that adaptation is essential for survival. Full #opinion⬇️ devex.com/news/opinion-i…

Daniel Wordsworth (@dwordsworth) 's Twitter Profile Photo

The #globalaid sector faces shrinking budgets & rising needs. As it also shifts to a zero-based model, the onus must be on prioritising efficiency & proven impact. Here's a piece I wrote for Devex, published today. I welcome your thoughts: devex.com/news/opinion-i…

Even before this latest crisis, global leaders gathered each year to bemoan the same thing: a #humanitarian funding system stretched beyond breaking point. But here’s the reality check: this isn’t just about money. open.substack.com/pub/danielword…

Spoke w/ Laura Jayes on Sky News Australia about the return of polio in #PNG & how WV is a trusted partner delivering vaccines where few others can, and 50 years' experience on the ground. Also talked about the bigger picture: aid needs a redesign. Not more dependency — more #dignity.
