Environmental action is no longer a choice — it is an urgent necessity.
Honored to represent @antonioguterres at the @globioalliance in 🇬🇾 and to reaffirm @UN’s call for bold, collective action. Nature is not a cost. It is the foundation of thriving, resilient societies.

Today – a call for small arms control to save lives.
@UNDP and @UN_Disarmament launched SALIENT 2.0 as a concrete path to reduce armed violence and enable development. To achieve this, we need greater financial and political commitment.

We need a multisectoral vision of peacebuilding which doesn't work without the UN out there delivering support. A call for developmental approaches to value-based support in critical areas - justice, security, human rights.
It takes a big village to sustain peace.
