It’s about lost friends, reconnecting w them, the journey w friends. In short clip of Zeya Thaw at end: He’s talking abt how this time there’s no one leader. The movement is being led by each & everyone who’s involved. And he’s giving props to the younger generation. #Myanmar

The accounts and statistics in this new report on sexism and violence against women working in Parliaments across Africa still has the power to shock. Worth a read 👇 - it's good to see some constructive practical recommendations and examples of progress on this included, too.
IPUparliament@IPUparliament

80% of women MPs in African parliaments have experienced psychological violence 42% have received death or rape threats, or threats of abduction directed at them or their loved ones #16days #orangetheworld #VAW Read the new #IPU/ APU report on #Africa🌍 ➡️ipu.org/vaw-africa

Great timing: good to see parliamentary scrutiny of environmental legislation underway in the UK. In the aftermath of COP26, strong parliamentary accountability will be vital to ensuring each govt's COP commitments are carried out effectively & inclusively. @WFD_Environment

We focus a lot on declining trust and/or building trust in our institutions/politicians, but demonstrating and judging 'trustworthiness' is the real aim, she argues.

With lots of talk in the UK today about damage to trust in politicians, it reminded me of one of my favourite short talks on trust and trustworthiness, by Baroness Onora O'Neill - well worth the ten minutes: ted.com/talks/onora_o_…

Day 1: #COP26 discussions will be so crucial to Africa. The continent is disproportionately affected by climate change impacts (floods, temperature increase, storms, deforestation etc) African countries, in my view, will also be heavily impacted by climate action elsewhere 🧵 1/
