Heartbroken by the relentless spread of gang violence targeting civilians in #Haiti . This week, thousands have been forced to flee Port-au-Prince. Again. Haitians deserve peace and have the right to a brighter future.

Another dark day for the humanitarian community in #Sudan . The killing of aid workers is unconscionable. Those who risk everything to help others must be protected. Humanitarian workers are #NotATarget .

It is now the second time Kenya is affected by floods in less than a year. We need emergency assistance like the one provided by @KenyaRedCross in support of Government efforts. But we also need longer term solutions to the climate crisis.
