             2025 might turn out to be the deadliest year for aid workers on record. On #WorldHumanitarianDay, we call to #ActForHumanity, protect humanitarians, respect the rules of law & end impunity. In 2024 a record number of 383 aid workers have been killed, this year counts 265 already.

             This year's #WorldRefugeeDay reminds of solidarity with refugees at a time of particular global uncertainty. While more than 123,2 mio. people were forcibly displaced by end-2024, only 22% of the funding has been received so far, forcing #UNHCR to lay off 3500 staff members.

             Consensus reached! After years of negotiation, @WHO Member States have agreed on the #PandemicAgreement. A strong sign of multilateral cooperation in uncertain times. Now: formal adoption at the #WHA78 in May, national implementation and final work on benefit-sharing.
