In the climate space, Professor Saleemul Huq was one of the most important voices from the global south, tireless in his advocacy of climate justice. His death, at a time when voices like his are most needed, is a tragic loss.

And the ancient wisdom reminds us that justice does not have double standards

UNRWA chief fears ‘the world is now losing its humanity’ 😢
There is wisdom to avoid this catastrophe.
Dharma is justice & duty.
Krishna asked Arjun to fight injustice. Krishna reminded Karn he did not speak against injustice & joined perpetrators he should not expect justice
Most timely & stern reminder to warn against the return of the lost decade for global poverty. Grim landscape requiring urgent attention.
Multiple crises of injustice😢
"Facing lost decades past and present, radical policy changes now provide the only hope of ending global poverty."

#PeriodPoverty is a global issue.
Ahead of #MenstrualHygieneDay, @anneqy says: "Every day, millions face an impossible decision - whether to buy food or menstrual products. From UK to Nepal to Uganda, girls are forced to miss school. This is unacceptable"
