Menstruation is not a dirty word. Let's talk about it! #MenstrualHygieneDay

More than 82% of the world’s #COVID19 vaccine doses have gone to affluent countries, compared to just 0.3% in low-income countries. Vaccinating everyone, everywhere is the only way to end the pandemic and prevent more dangerous variants from gaining a foothold.

May is #MentalHealthMonth. Mental health has been neglected for too long. We need more investment in health services and to keep fighting the stigma of seeking help.

We're fewer than four weeks away from our virtual Week of Action, an exclusive, action-packed event for UNA-USA members to connect with their peers, refine their advocacy skills, and meet with their elected officials. Don't miss out! → bit.ly/2021_WOA #USAforUN

My warmest wishes to everyone celebrating #EidAlFitr. As Ramadan comes to an end, let us continue drawing inspiration from the values of compassion, unity and empathy that are celebrated during this Holy Month.

This Sunday, millions of people celebrate #MothersDay. Many of us will again mark this day away from our own mothers, but will find a way to share our love & appreciation. To her & all mothers worldwide, thank you for always being there for us, with strength, support & love.

If journalists cannot ask, we cannot know. On #WorldPressFreedomDay, join us in supporting journalists to ask the #QuestionsThatMatter! on.unesco.org/wpfd2021 #PressFreedom

On #WorldPressFreedomDay , we pay tribute to David Beriain & Roberto Fraile, Spanish reporters murdered on 27 April in Burkina Faso while shooting a documentary, and to all journalists who risk their lives at a time when independent & free media is more essential than ever.

We have journalists to thank for keeping us informed during a public health crisis and for sharing the personal stories of many whose lives have been upended by the pandemic. A strong, independent press is necessary for our democracy. #WorldPressFreedomDay

Catch up on GEOS sessions you may have missed, including our most recent program with experts from @FAONorthAmerica, the National @YoungFarmers Coalition, and @WFP who shared ways we can all work together in pursuit of a 🌍 with #ZeroHunger. 📽️: buff.ly/2WfrGFn #USAforUN

In solidarity with the people of India, the @UN stands with you.

As we mark #EarthDay, our planet is at a tipping point. Recovery from the #COVID19 pandemic is a chance to set the world on a cleaner, greener, more sustainable path. We must end our war on nature and nurse it back to health.

I welcome the European Union's agreement to enshrine climate neutrality by 2050 into law, along with cutting at least 55% of emissions by 2030. The world needs urgent and ambitious #ClimateAction.

This World Health Workers Week, I salute all health heroes for their unwavering commitment amid #COVID19. The best way to honour them is ensuring they can do their job safely, giving them priority access to vaccines & getting them the support they need for their critical work.

Civil society is raising the volume - with clear and decisive steps on how to address the excessive debt burden.
