What does development progress look like in people's lives?
From food security and flood preparedness to sustainable production, @nahlav Jutta Hinkkanen & @MohamedZarkani share stories of work theyโre proud of with national partners โ recognised in 2026 UN Results Report Awards.
Climate change is already affecting lives. But solutions exist.
Ahead of @turkiyecop31, together with @UN_Turkiye, UN Coordinator @AhonsiBA welcomes the world to Antalya.
We can accelerate #ClimateAction and turn commitments into results for people and the planet.
The climate is changing faster than we can adapt, and those who contributed least are often the most vulnerable.
Even tripling adaptation finance by 2035 would cover less than 1/3 of developing countriesโ needs.
The #AdaptationGap is growing. Financing must catch up. @UNEP
