Build your dream for tomorrow, starting from today. Have a great week! @cmghana @PPAGGhana @Afropopdevt @IreneSiaw_ @YAMghana @ngechu @kobbyblay @AfriYAN_Gh

Happy #JamhuriDay 🇰🇪 
Today is a reminder that independence is sustained through service and solidarity. UN Volunteers continue to support partners and communities across Kenya to advance peace, development and the #SDGs. #UN80inKenya

Today marks the end of the #16DaysOfActivism. Yet, the campaign goes on. In Kitui, community UN Volunteers have been raising awareness on gender based violence, across the county. We met some them and their stories are shaping a different narrative. #HumanRightsDay

🎥 Volunteer engagement is key to serving communities! From organizing people to distributing mosquito nets, Régis Bigirimana shows what commitment is. 👇Watch how he contributes to the fight against malaria during the 2025 #LLMN campaign @PNUDBurundi @UNV_ESARO @UNVolunteers

Violence thrives where stigma wins. “It’s just a joke” is where normalization starts. Challenge the comments, the control, the excuses. #EndGBV

What do UN Volunteers do? A lot. They team up directly with local populations to bring people together and rebuild, especially in places recovering from crisis or with limited resources.

The world is ageing. It’s time to recognize the power of volunteering later in life. Research by UNV and @ILO shows how older volunteers shape our world and why their role is so vital in ageing societies 👇🏽 @ILO_EMP_Policy unv.org/news/unv-relea…

Whether 🔵responding to natural disasters, 🟠supporting communities in conflict, 🟡or helping rebuild after hardship, #UNVolunteers are there, working alongside communities every step of the way.

Why are #volunteers key to achieving the @GlobalGoalsUN? Because real change happens with people. Volunteers: ✅ Share knowledge and work with communities. ✅ Help track what’s working, and what’s not. ✅ Spread the word and inspire action.

“As long as people are willing to sit and speak, the path to #peace 🕊️ remains open.” In #SouthSudan 🇸🇸, @unmissmedia UN Volunteer Emily creates safe spaces for women, youth, elders & faith leaders, using dialogue to prevent the escalation of violence. 🔗unv.org/Success-storie…

The world leans on volunteers every day. Yet their work stays both unrecognised and underutilised. The 2026 International #VolunteerYear is our chance to change that. #IVY2026

The 2026 #VolunteerYear is off to a strong start. In #Madagascar, it started with climate action🌱 Government, communities & @UNVolunteers came together to plant over 5,000 trees to respond to environmental issues facing the country. Read the story: t.ly/nTYlj

Volunteers bring dedication, energy & fresh ideas; helping @WHO engage communities & improve service delivery, says @HSHazarika, WHO Rep in #Angola. Currently, over 40 @UNVolunteers support @WHO in expanding access to health services in Angola. #JourneysofInspiration

Women’s rights must be known to be protected. In #Madagascar 🇲🇬, Pierre volunteers with @UNHumanRights #ForAllWomenAndGirls, helping communities understand and discuss women’s rights through civil society groups and local authorities. #IWD2026 🔗t.ly/9iYAr

@WFP @WFP_Kenya @UNVolunteers @WFPChief @WFP_Media @WFP_SouthSudan @WFPInnovation @unmissmedia @UNPeacebuilding @UNPeacekeeping @UN_SDG @UNDPPA @UN_SouthSudan In #Madagascar 🇲🇬, Njaratiana Doris serves as a UN Volunteer with @UNICEFMada.

Across East & Southern Africa, UN Volunteers are defending rights, demanding justice and taking action. 🟠They serve. 🔵They lead. 🟢They inspire. #ForAllWomenAndGirls This International Women's Day, we bring you their stories. #IWD2026

In #Kenya🇰🇪, Jane Mwendwa serves with @WFP in Marsabit, a remote, arid region near the Ethiopian border. She works with mothers to improve child nutrition using simple, locally available foods. #IWD2026 #ForAllWomenAndGirls

The Indian Ocean looks calm on a map. On the ground, it means distance, weather shocks, and small @UN teams doing big work alongside government partners. At the heart of many of the @UN teams are @UNVolunteers.

Starting this week, we bring you stories of UN Volunteers serving across Madagascar, Mauritius, Comoros and Seychelles - and how @UNVolunteers is expanding its support to @UN entities working to improve lives across these island nations.

@UNVolunteers @UN @OMSMadagascar @UNDPMauritius @UNFPAMadagascar @USEmbassyMoris @FAOMadagascar Southern Madagascar is far. Long roads. Heavy heat. Rains do not always come. Harvests are uncertain. The @UN works here to make a difference. UN Volunteers are at the heart of this work. 🧵 A photo story 👇 unvolunteers.exposure.co/no-easy-roads-…

The red, white and green colours in the flag of Madagascar 🇲🇬 symbolise the nation's history, traditions and rich biodiversity. During a town hall with @ToilyKurbanov, UN Volunteers in🇲🇬 shared what it takes to keep showing up every day, even when the work is hard.
