The #ClimateCrisis is one of extreme - potentially fatal - inequality. #PM568
Human caused. Human crisis. Human consequences. The climate emergency is about people. It was created by humans, and it will be the most vulnerable who bear the cost. Displacement is one of its most devastating human consequences. #TogetherForOurPlanet

Statelessness affects children’s access to medical care, education, and future employment. Addressing this will present challenges, particularly in rural and remote areas, but it is necessary to protect future generations. #PM568
Preventing statelessness among children, through birth registration and other measures, is a top priority. Every child has the right to a nationality. #IBelong #EndStatelessness

Vaccine equity is an interesting and key piece in the debate on vaccine mandates, including for international travel. Who will have the right to travel? Whose rights will be restricted due to inequity? #PM568
#COVID19 is still raging, but people are dying at two different rates. In rich countries with high vaccination coverage, case fatality rates are dropping. In poor countries that don’t have access, both cases and deaths are surging. #VaccinEquity
