Languages shape how young people learn and build the future. Yet 40% of learners are not taught in the language they speak and understand. Join us on #MotherLanguageDay to support multilingual education and ensure everyone learns in their own language: unesco.org/en/days/mother…

From rising seas to disappearing forests, Small Island Developing States face some of the fiercest fallout from environmental degradation. But many of these countries are fighting back. See how: unep.org/news-and-stori…

Freshwater landscapes are home to 10% of all known species on Earth but a recent IUCN co-authored study reveals 1/4 of freshwater animals at risk of extinction. It is the largest global assessment of freshwater animals on the @IUCNRedList to date. bit.ly/4adwI9N

Great to catch-up w/ Kieran Rea & @AtlantiaT leadership team. Kieran is a former colleague from my time @Pharmabiotic He always impressed me with his expertise and commitment to excellent science.

Key Biodiversity Areas are the most important places in the world for species and their habitats. From deserts to the middle of the ocean, these sites are of global importance to the planet’s overall health and the persistence of #biodiversity. #KBA #KeyBiodiversityAreas

Congratulations @Qualcomm on today’s exciting announcement of a €125 million investment in the Cork site, supported by IDA Ireland. Exciting news for the region and a huge achievement for all involved! Congrats #Qualcomm team...lovely start to 2026

Ecosystems are collapsing in real time: Australian reefs bleached, Amazon turning from sink to source, boreal forests burning. These aren’t opinions. They’re observations. Awareness must continue. The science keeps marching forward. #ClimateReality #Activism

Wetland habitats support a rich diversity of life, but 35% of the world’s #wetlands have disappeared in the last 50 years. Wetland restoration not only increases #biodiversity but their ability to produce ecosystem services for the benefit of people. #ForWetlands

Apply for #HorizonEU Cluster 6 work programme 2026-2027: €1,3 billion for research & innovation on biodiversity, sustainable food systems, climate & water resilience, circular & resource-efficient economy. For a greener, more resilient Europe: link.europa.eu/qjXFVP

Wetlands cover a small percentage of the earth’s surface, yet they are essential systems. 🌿 They are the arteries and veins of the landscape. 🐟 They support fisheries and sustain livelihoods. 💧 They act as essential water sources and natural purifiers. A world without wetlands is a world without water.

The #HorizonEU Work Programme 2026-2027 is here! With €14 billion in funding, the EU supports research and innovation that tackles global challenges. Find out more about the upcoming info days, the opening of calls for proposals and how you can apply: link.europa.eu/v8pH3Q

📢The triple planetary crisis demands urgent, integrated, and inclusive action — a message powerfully delivered by IUCN Director General Dr Grethel Aguilar during the General Debate at #UNEA7 🌍 Read the full statement ➡️ info.iucn.org/3KT1IDT

At a time when headwinds against women’s rights are growing, we must hold firm to one promise: leave no woman, no girl, behind. We must stem the flow of regression.

"We are losing biodiversity at a rate unparalleled in human history." Global wildlife populations have sunk over 60% since 1970. We are destroying ourselves and taking nature with us. Time to protect people and the planet. #ActOnClimate #climate #biodiversity #nature

The lack of recognition of the benefits provided by healthy urban soils leaves cities more vulnerable to floods, heat, and pollution. Investing in healthy soils is a cost-effective way to save money, protect health, and strengthen urban systems. #WorldSoilDay #GreenCities

Caring for nature → stronger livelihoods → stable societies → lasting peace → resilience for people and the planet. It all begins with caring for the environment. #UNEA7 is an opportunity to invest in and reinforce this cycle: bit.ly/3WtFOt3
