When devastating floods hit Kenya, homes and livelihoods were destroyed and there was a surge in sexual and gender-based violence.
@oxfaminKE & local partners responded, backed by £125k from @scotgov's Humanitarian Emergency Fund.

📺As @JamiePolitics tells @BBCScotlandNews, @scotgov's re-writing of its own climate rulebook is an acute global embarrassment and a mess of Ministers' own making.

Today @scotgov announced plans to weaken climate laws, axing the 2030 emissions reduction target. While every @ScotParl party has a role to play @scotgov cannot duck responsibility.
Our climate promises are broken - @ScotGovFM get Scotland’s climate commitments back on track.

Great to see this impact. 👇👇👇
Over 385,000 refugees from South Sudan are living in seven camps across Gambella in western Ethiopia.
With support from @ScotGovInter's Humanitarian Emergency Fund, @OxfaminEthiopia is providing clean water, safe toilets, and basics like soap.

The #WPS agenda is being prioritised through implementation of the fifth NAP, but overall, we found it is isolated and inconsistent in UK Gov work.

“After scant progress to reduce emissions this damning report comes as no surprise. Since declaring a climate emergency, @scotgov has failed to deliver anything close to an emergency response, & must now redouble efforts"

We’ve published the latest assessment of Scotland’s progress to reduce emissions. The Committee no longer believes that the Scottish Government will meet its statutory 2030 goal to reduce emissions by 75%. More: theccc.org.uk/2024/03/20/sco… x.com/theCCCuk/status/177023…

We'll only deliver emission cuts at speed & scale if the transition is fair.
@IPPRScotland w/ @OxfamScotland @sfha_hq explore how clean heating can be paid for fairly. ⏬
Full grants for those on low incomes, with better off (who tend to pollute more) paying more via fair taxes
29 Feb 2024
Meeting Scotland's climate targets requires significant new action, including fundamentally changing the way we heat/insulate our homes.
The way it's paid for must be fair & protect those on low incomes.
Those with more money, who on average pollute more, should pay more.
