After last year’s GenZ protests, the president admitted that one of his administration’s biggest failures was poor communication with the public. He squarely blamed those entrusted with that responsibility, suggesting they had fallen short. At the time, it seemed like a turning point, as though the government was finally ready to listen, to reform, and to serve the people better. Many people took him at his word and when they were called in to support, they stepped up. Not out of blind loyalty, but out of hope. Hope that perhaps, just perhaps, there was a genuine desire to reset the course of leadership in the country. But for some of us, it did not take long to see through the smokescreen, and we quickly retreated, unwilling to lend our credibility to a system our conscience could not tolerate. Beneath the carefully staged gestures of reform, nothing had changed. As soon as the protests faded and the pressure eased, the system snapped right back to its old self, to business as usual. The same arrogance, same disregard for the people, the same toxic indifference that sparked the protests in the first place. The administration does not have a communication problem. It has a delivery problem, an arrogance problem and a moral problem. It is tone deaf to the concerns of the people. And now, as citizens prepare to march in memory of those killed over a year ago simply for demanding justice, there are reports that entities within the administration are quietly plotting to meet them with violence once again. This is not just unacceptable. It is shameful. What kind of country have we become, where the government sees citizens not as people to serve, but as threats to silence? Where justice for the dead is met not with empathy, but with intimidation and fake promises?

❗️We can't afford delays on climate action. Day 1 of UAE-Belem WP shows a critical need for urgent streamlining. Previous processes were slow: we must do better.⏰ This workshop must define a clear work plan, criteria & principles leading to a comprehensive report at Bonn.(1/2)

As the effects of climate change intensify, adaptation is crucial to save lives, address vulnerability and minimise loss & damage.💚 The Global Goal on Adaptation - a Paris Agreement pillar - rightly states that #adaptation and mitigation action must go hand in hand.🤝 (1/4)
