Thank you to EU Ministers for chance to join them in Dublin. My challenges to humanitarian community and supporters … Is reform yet meeting the moment? How do we reconnect with public? And who will help reimagine humanitarianism?

La resiliencia de los venezolanos es extraordinaria. En menos de dos minutos, miles de personas lo perdieron todo por los terremotos. Ahora debemos seguir brindando agua, alimentos, refugio, protección y solidaridad con resultados concretos.

Arrived in Gilgit-Baltistan. Communities have lived here in the high places for millennia. But rising temperatures are causing flash floods, landslides and avalanches. A landscape and a way of life is threatened.

Merci pour ce dialogue indispensable avec nos partenaires humanitaires, co-présidé par le ministre Barrot, sur la réforme du système humanitaire. Les ONGs françaises ont un rôle important à jouer pour garantir le succès du renouveau du système humanitaire.

Coercive displacement means millions of civilians on the move in Lebanon. I heard today in Beirut deep uncertainty, stretched resilience, growing frustration and fear. People told me they want safety, dignity, and to go home.

We must not forget #Sudan. Almost 10 months of conflict have robbed the people of Sudan of nearly everything. We are appealing for US$4.1 billion to meet the needs of civilians inside the country and those who have fled to neighbouring countries.

The Gaza Famine is the world’s famine. A preventable, predictable famine. Enough. Ceasefire. Open all crossings, north and south. Let us get food in, unimpeded and at massive scale.

Just a few days until these corridors are full of world leaders. The critics of the UN and humanitarian action are also out in force. Can we prove them wrong?👇 #UNGA

I spoke to students at Carleton University on my hope that a new movement is out there for global solidarity and humanitarian action. Energised by their questions, challenge, energy and activism.

We’re at business end of UN week. Let’s now test if commitments translate to lives saved. All week, local leaders – not me – have led us. We passed yesterday 40m people reached so far this year. In awe of humanitarian movement that has done that, against the odds.

Handshakes, meetings and photos are not how humanitarians will measure impact of UN General Assembly next week. We want serious action on the four huge risks running out of control.👇 #UNGA81

So, for those killed and those whose voices are silenced: what more evidence do you need? Will you act now – decisively – to prevent genocide in Gaza and to ensure respect for international humanitarian law? This Council must prevail. Demand this ends.

I spent last night in Kyiv as another series of massive attacks hit. Homes. A hospital. A school. At least 15 people killed, more than 30 injured. An insight into the reality for so many living through this war.

Aid workers are protected under international humanitarian law. Yet marked humanitarian vehicles are still being hit. Local organizations face greatest risks. Those funding and fuelling today’s wars must do more to protect humanitarians. The Associated Press interview:

The Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) stands for humanitarian delivery. We’re turning the Humanitarian Reset into action – prioritizing, shifting power to local responders and making tough choices on who is best placed to deliver lifesaving support.
