Deeply shocked and saddened by the passing of our dear friend, colleague and @WHO Envoy David Nabarro. David was a great champion of global health and health equity, and a wise, generous mentor to countless individuals. His work touched and impacted so many lives across the world. On behalf of WHO, I’m extending our heartfelt condolences to David’s family, friends and colleagues. Rest in peace, my dear friend. We will dearly miss your expertise, wisdom and kindness.

Core resources enable @UNICEF to quickly direct support where children need it the most.
We’re grateful for our fantastic supporters. But funding cuts could roll back hard-earned gains for children and threaten the lives we seek to protect.

Great to meet Gavi Board Chair @JMDBarroso at UNICEF to discuss the @Gavi alliance.
UNICEF is a proud partner in the alliance that has played a role in vaccinating over a billion children in 25 years. A fully-funded Gavi can save the lives of countless more.

Vaccines save lives.
@gavi makes them accessible to all.
And it empowers countries around the globe to produce their own.
The EU will be proud to co-host Gavi’s High-Level Pledging Summit in Brussels on 19-20 March.

América Latina y el Caribe no ha experimentado una reducción significativa de la tasa de infección por #VIH entre adolescentes.
Para cambiar esto, es clave mejorar el acceso a la atención primaria de salud para integrar la prevención y el tratamiento del VIH

Nearly 350K children are displaced & over 3M need urgent humanitarian aid in Haiti.
At today’s roundtable with @the_IDB and the Government of Haiti, I called for stronger investment & collaboration to restore peace, safety & hope for Haiti’s children.

Haiti can’t afford to wait for perfect conditions—let’s unite to support the country in its humanitarian, recovery and reconstruction efforts. The IDB is proud to lead a comprehensive effort, that includes the short and medium and long-term plans for #Haiti. We are working with the government on a home-grown executing agency.

With Catherine Russell @unicefchief. Road crashes are the leading cause of children fatalities worldwide. For stopping this tragedy, we must invest more in education, streets design on the way to school, buckling up seat belt for passengers & ensuring that ever kid wears a helmet that meets UN 🇺🇳standards. Looking forward to further collaborate with @UNICEF #ForEveryChild, everywhere ! #50by30 #MakeASafetyStatement @UNICEFhealth

Needs in #Haiti continue to grow. So does the danger for children.
Everyone has a role to play to change the trajectory & ensure that the rights of children are protected.
Children shouldn't pay with their lives & futures for a crisis created by adults. unicef.org/press-releases…
