"A 6 year old girl Aya... she had little bobs in her hair.. she died in front of us" James Elder from UNICEF describes conditions in a hospital in Gaza.

Don’t forget that the Gaza flotilla volunteers are ordinary people, actually risking their lives (yes, Israel has killed activists before) while world leaders do nothing.

Excited to announce a new funding opportunity for research on "what works" in climate adaptation. We are specifically looking for strong causal designs that tell us what interventions work (or don't) to reduce impacts of a changing climate. Link in next post. Plz share!

"We faced hunger before, but never like this": skeletal children fill hospital wards as starvation grips Gaza due to Israel's genocidal siege.

People in Gaza are starving to death. @UNICEF is warning that deadly malnutrition among children is reaching catastrophic levels. Humanitarian aid at scale is urgently needed. Safe, unrestricted access into Gaza must be granted to save lives.

Israel is continuing to use starvation as a method of warfare, a war crime, and as a tool to commit genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip. The harrowing suffering of starving Palestinians in Gaza, including our own colleagues, on an hourly basis, is
