☢️Over $90 billion is spent on nuclear weapons annually. 🧐But there are better uses for that money than weapons of mass destruction. 💸 $91.4 billion could largely close the financing gap for social protection in low-income countries, lifting millions out of poverty. 📢Let’s

Outrageous! In 2023, global spending on nuclear weapons surged to an astronomical $91.4 billion! 👶 $91.4 billion invested in the #CareEconomy could generate 6.5 million jobs by 2035—2M in childcare, 3M in long-term care, and 1.5M in non-care sectors. 📢Let’s say NO to nuclear

I welcome @ilo's move to pursue an ICJ resolution on the 10yr long dispute between workers' & employers' reps over the right to strike. The right to #strike is a fundamental pillar of workers' rights& intrinsic to the right to association,crucial for building equitable societies.

The Governing Body of the @ILO is to refer a dispute over the right to strike to the International Court of Justice. In a special session of the GB, govt, employer and worker delegates took a decision by vote to urgently refer the matter to the court. PR👉 https://t.co/ml9jk8BmlF

I had a fruitful exchange with the workers' group at #ILC2023 today. We discussed the importance of @ILO Conventions 87 & 98, covering freedom of association, the right to organise and collective bargaining, as well as gender equality, and wages in the context of high inflation.

We have an essential responsibility to ensure that people go to work and come home alive, uninjured and healthy. The designation of a safe and healthy working environment as a fundamental principle and right at work is an important step in this direction. #SafeDay #SocialJustice

⚠️ 1.8 billion children are living without social protection. This violates children's rights and prevents them from fulfilling their potential. Children cannot wait any longer. They need social protection now❗ Read the🆕 @ilo / @UNICEF report: https://t.co/BvA0lvNats
