Invigorating discussion with UK NGOs and civil society on the crisis the sector faces. Thank you @StartNetwork & @decappeal for organising excellent discussion.

Big strides in #AnticipatoryAction in #Bangladesh! WFP & MoDMR reached 430,000 ppl in 20 districts in '24, thanks to 15 activations & $10.4M mobilized. But 54% of families in need remain unsupported. $42M needed for 2025! #wfpbd50 @FAO @UNICEF @SaveChildren @CARE @StartNetwork

📢HI welcomes the agreed #ceasefire on #Gaza ! Now, it is crucial that aid reaches those in need without delay. We call for immediate and safe access for organizations to deliver food, medical supplies, rehabilitation services... Read our full statement:

We welcome reports of the ceasefire agreement in #Gaza, bringing a moment of hope to children and families who have endured unimaginable loss. We renew our call for immediate and unhindered humanitarian access to all areas of Gaza. #CeasefireNOW plan-international.org/news/…

Muslim Aid welcomes the ceasefire deal that has been implemented in Gaza, recognising it as a vital step towards alleviating the suffering endured by the Palestinian people. We hope for humanitarian corridors to open for us to provide relief and rebuild Gaza.

World Vision welcomes the ceasefire as a glimmer of hope, but the humanitarian situation remains catastrophic. While the pause in hostilities is a positive step, the broader situation across the region remains fragile. Conflict, continued violence, movement restrictions and economic collapse in the West Bank are all having devastating effects on livelihoods and children’s futures. The ceasefire in Gaza offers a hopeful opportunity to address these challenges and renew commitments to justice, stability, and peace for everyone. Learn more: wvuk.org/xtx650UHbj8

2/2: "We used to face challenges with the borehole with a bushpump because it would breakdown often and we would go for a long time without water, but now we get water from the taps so I do not think we will face any challenges," - Moyo, Community member.

#NewsAlert @WorldVision, @AquaZim and the Government of Zimbabwe joined hands to distribute 600 chickens to women’s groups in Masvingo as part of the Anticipatory Action project. This initiative aims to foster sustainable livelihoods.
