🇹🇱UN Timor-Leste🇺🇳🧡

Such a pleasure to see UN Messenger of Peace @Malala again last week. During these troubled times, I’m especially grateful for her tireless advocacy for women and girls around the world — including in Afghanistan, where girls are banned from secondary school and women and girls have been systematically erased from public life. At a moment of growing setbacks in gender equality, her voice and determination are needed more than ever.

The Charter of the United Nations entered into force in 1945. Since then, the UN has worked tirelessly to help the world’s most vulnerable and create a more sustainable, peaceful future for all. Learn more facts about the work of the @UN: buff.ly/RD8nh5q

Resident Coordinator @FunmiB highlighted the @UN's steadfast partnership with the Govt of Timor-Leste, delivering concrete results across food security and nutrition, climate resilience, education, health, digital transformation, and pathways to livelihoods and economic opportunities. These efforts directly support national priorities, accelerate progress towards the #SDGs, and align with the country’s Strategic Development Plan, shaping a shared vision for the next five years. H.E. the VPM reaffirmed the deep trust between Timor-Leste and the United Nations, acknowledging the UN’s unwavering support from independence to nation-building and today’s development journey. He underscored the critical leadership and coordination role of the Resident Coordinator in mobilising coherent, system-wide UN support for the Government. A powerful reflection of a trusted and enduring partnership, delivering impact and opportunity for the people of Timor-Leste. 🇹🇱

When emergencies strike, strong coordination saves lives. The UN Resident Coordinator’s Office in Timor-Leste brought development partners together to strengthen coordination and preparedness to support Government-led responses during Level 3 emergencies—with one clear interface for engagement, from response to recovery. Preparing together before crises happen helps protect communities and leave no one behind. 🇹🇱 #EmergencyPreparedness #HumanitarianCoordination #Partnerships #Resilience #SDGs #UNTimorLeste #LeaveNoonebehind @FunmiB
