Today, I met with families in Haiti who have lost everything. Yet, they show remarkable courage & dignity. Their resilience has moved me deeply. These families are not asking for the world’s sympathy. They are waiting for the world’s action.

At the UN DPPA Annual Donor Meeting, Amb @LokThapa2071 reaffirmed Nepal’s strong support for preventive diplomacy, mediation and sustaining peace. He emphasized that early investment in prevention and mediation is far more effective and less costly than responding to conflict after it erupts. Amb Thapa underlined the need for sustained, predictable, and flexible funding for DPPA, including through the Multi-Year Appeal (MYA), to enable the Department to respond rapidly, deploy its mediation expertise, support nationally owned political processes and help turn fragile moments into sustainable peace and inclusive development. #DPPA #PactForTheFuture #UN80 #Peacebuilding #PreventiveDiplomacy #Mediation #NepalAtUN

At the Annual Annual Donor Meeting of @UNDPPA, Ambassador @ElinaKalkku 🇫🇮 highlighted the importance of the Multi-Year Appeal in many country contexts, such as Sudan, as well in in advancing #WPS and #YPS agendas. Investing in the MYA is an investment in prevention and diplomacy
Huge thanks to all the partners who came together today to show their support for our work in conflict prevention, meditation, electoral assistance and peacebuilding. Without voluntary funding, much of this work would not be possible. #InvestinPeace

For the first time in many years, Haiti has a chance to turn a corner - but only if the international community assumes its responsibilities. My appeal from Haiti to the world: Step up. Fund the humanitarian response. Support Haitian institutions & the Gang Suppression Force. Together, we can turn this momentum into concrete results. Together, we stand with the Haitian people – for peace, security & dignity.
