Minister Emer Higgins addressed today’s #CSW70 side-event on preventing and combatting cyber violence against women and girls. Online spaces are enabling new forms of sexual and gender-based violence. Making digital and media spaces safer requires robust regulation, as well as survivor-centred initiatives to prevent violence online. 🇮🇪 is committed to zero tolerance for all forms of gender-based violence.

On the margins of #CSW70, 🇮🇪 was pleased to host a side-event on Education as a First Step to Justice for Women and Girls. 📚 Quality education is key to supporting women and girls in realising their rights as equal citizens.

@caulmick Professor Jeffry Sachs is a brilliant Intellectual. He makes the difficult concept easy to understand. I could listen to his wise words all day long. I’m so sorry he was treated so poorly by our national media. Disgraceful. Shame on David McCullough.

The Institute of Foreign Affairs hosts Jeffrey D. Sachs, Professor at Columbia University and President of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network, for a high-level public lecture themed “Realizing African Development Potential in a Multipolar World.” 𝐏𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐈: 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞, 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐚𝐫 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐫𝐲 & 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚’𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐭𝐲 The lecture continues with an analysis of imperial decline and post-war geopolitics reshaping Africa and the Global South. 🔷 European dominance rested on industrial superiority and colonial repression—but collapsed after two self-destructive world wars. 🔷 By 1945, financial exhaustion shifted global power to the United States; tools like Lend‑Lease accelerated the decline of the British Empire. 🔷 Decolonization followed—uneven and often violent—as weakened European states struggled to retain influence in Africa and Asia. #AfricanDevelopment #MultipolarWorld
