IT’S OUT!!! This is the first global project I worked on post-maternity leave. I’m so proud of it. ❤️ Our team put in months and months of work putting together a compelling document… 🔗showing the link between climate migration and informal settlements 😐debunking the often-held view that migration flows from developing (low- or middle-income countries) to developed ones —most climate migration happens within country borders from rural to urban areas, and 💴calling for investments towards urban informal settlement upgrading as a climate adaptation mechanism.

The #SDG indicators include hunger outcomes and growth outcomes (e.g. stunting, wasting), but not healthy diets. This is a major gap! Improving diet quality—as measured through dietary diversity—is an essential goal for ending ALL forms of malnutrition and should be included in the SDG indicators. The SDG committee is considering a proposal from the Switzerland FSO and others to include healthy diet indicators (MDD-C and MDD-W) in Target 2.2 of the SDGs. The public comment period is open until August 15, and we need your expression of support to make this happen! Read about the proposed addition of healthy diets indicators (for children under 2 and women of reproductive age) into SDG 2.2: https://lnkd.in/e6CP6xVm Provide comments on "Target 2.2 addition proposal from Switzerland FSO" by August 15: https://lnkd.in/eZnSyqiU.

Congratulations, Olivier De Schutter on your excellent report questioning the role of the economy, the fixation with growth and GDP and the need to adopt a human rights economy. At CESR we are proud to have been part of the consultations that have informed this report, and the impact of our work around a Rights-Based-Economy.

Straight from Bari, Italy, at the G7 Summit: It's good to see the commitment to improve coordination and collaboration from G7 countries through the Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment to support the development needs in Africa, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. The newly announced secretariat function is urgently needed, and must ensure civil society participation, prioritizing that development gains are achieved and community voices are heard. However, Habitat encourages the #PGII to deepen their development impact by placing a greater emphasis on informal settlements as a critical area for improving people’s lives. Questions remain: Where will it be housed, how will it be structured, can we meaningfully prioritize development objectives? #G7 #Infrastructure #GlobalDevelopment #civil72024

Join us for a webinar on Climate Change and Migration. Climate change throughout the world will be the biggest economic disruptor and cause of migration in the coming years. Think about it—water crisis in our western states and elsewhere in the world, more extreme hurricanes, crops drying up, wildfires...We’ve seen it in the past with Oklahoma dustbowl in the 1930s, Hurricane Katrina, California wildfires. It’s just getting more extreme and frequent these days.

Interesting new report on the future of philanthropy just released by Philea - Philanthropy Europe Association, including a large survey with some eye-opening findings: While there "is consensus that philanthropy is an essential force in driving action and collaboration in the future (...) The respondents of the survey identified conservative boards (42%) as the highest internal risk philanthropy is facing in the coming decade. It is followed by slow adaptation (37%) and foundations focusing mainly on mainstream topics (32%). Short-termism of philanthropic engagement, risk aversion, power imbalance, over-emphasis on strategy over impact, restricted funding practices, and focus on technical issues rather than cultural change are among the topics respondents raise critically in their comments on potential internal risks." Our times call for philanthropy to become bolder and tackle head-on the grand challenges of our present and future.

Despite the catastrophic and growing global toll of #NCDs, the proportion of total Development Assistance for Health (DAH) dedicated to NCDs has remained unacceptably low for the past 30 years. About 1-2% of DAH has been dedicated to NCDs, while these diseases cause 77% of the mortality, at a global level. There is a fundamental mismatch between the healthcare needs and rights of people living with NCDs and the resources allocated to respond. Bridging the investment gap offers the world’s greatest potential to save and improve lives by 2030. It is time for governments to #LeadOnNCDs #ActOnNCDs Do you want to know more? Join NCD Alliance and Global Alliance for Tobacco Control this Thursday 13 June for the launch of a much-needed report on ODA for NCDs Monika Arora Leslie Rae Ferat Katie Dain Alison Cox Marijke Kremin👇

MPs play a crucial role in shaping local, regional, and national agendas, with the power to mobilize and influence change. By combining this influence with increased local agency, transformative actions in food systems can be expanded and strengthened. Despite political challenges, raising public awareness can help future-proof these initiatives and spark a grassroots movement. #MPs #FoodSystems #CommunityEngagement Commonwealth Parliamentary Association Kipkemoi arap Kirui, LLB

Early morning peaceful run before a busy week for #Philanthropy in Europe and beyond! First up, the Philea - Philanthropy Europe Association Forum 2024, focusing on trust in philanthropy and finding ways to build credibility and effectiveness in our efforts to support #socialjustice. Secondly, the 77th World Health Assembly, where global health leaders and stakeholders will focus on improving global health policies by looking closely at social participation for #universalhealthcoverage. A great opportunity to promote inclusive health governance and participatory decision-making to address the worsening #healthinequities post-pandemic. I look forward to reconnecting with my former colleagues at the World Health Organization and WHO Foundation, as well as other change makers and collaborating to create #healthforall as we confront issues like #climatechange and #globalconflicts. Lastly, The AI for Good summit highlights how #AI can catalyze change; such as robotics helping humanitarian missions or AI’s role in climate action. Technology has the potential to create #sustainablesolutions to the many challenges we now face. I'm really excited to be attending. As always, I call on all of us to work together and take impact-oriented action to improve lives across the globe! #WHA77 #AIforGood #PhileaForum2024 #UHC #HealthForAll #TechForChange #SocialJustice #TogetherWeCan

The #overhead conundrum in the #socialimpact sector.... Non-profits are doing a good job if they keep their overhead costs to a minimum - or so the saying goes. The reality is more multi-faceted. Overhead costs cannot be the most important factor on which to judge the efficiency of a non-profit organisation. Perhaps it's time to flip the perspective and start talking about #forimpactorganisations. Instead of measuring a negative (no profits), let's focus on the positive (social impact). For all the smaller and grassroots organisations struggling with lack of overhead funding, I hope and advocacy for two things: 1. UN and INGOs to pass on sufficient overheads if they are the grant holder. 2. The increasing momentum of #trustbasedphilanthropy to fill remaining critical gaps. #localization #overheads #ngo #humanitarianaid #developmentcooperation #charity #solidarity #equity #socialjustice #decolonization #decolonizingaid #socialimpact #civilsociety

Women workers built a global movement to end gender-based violence and harassment in the world of work, culminating in the passage of ILO Convention 190 in 2019. Five years on, significant progress has been made. With 39 country ratifications, this has been the fastest-ratified ILO Convention in history. But climate change poses new challenges, exacerbating existing inequalities and placing women at higher risk for gender-based violence at work. As this great op-ed by several of my fellow FORGE members highlights, funders can play a key role to support women-led, worker-led movements for justice. #ASaferWorldOfWork #WorkerPWR #EndGBV #GBVH #genderbasedviolence https://lnkd.in/eZsprKff
