A big shoutout to the women journalists in Canberra. It can be so hard reporting this stuff. You’re doing a fantastic job and I’m very glad you’re there. In numbers. #auspol

“However, we have to get the message out that we’ve got to change but let’s have hope that we’re going to come out of this better people. We have to push our politicians in the right direction that we want.”

This is a special time for people of different faiths: Christians celebrate Easter. Jews are marking Passover. Muslims will soon begin the holy month of Ramadan.
I appeal to religious leaders of all faiths to join forces for peace & focus on our common battle against #COVID19.

Thank god there are still Oceania scholars doing work that has 0 to do with Foreign Affairs, development, policy & Aus-Pacific relations. Coz I get the sense in Australia that folks outside PacificStudies think that’s what PacificStudies is @AAPSPacific blogs.griffith.edu.au/asiain…

When every VIP in town visits your project from including the President of the UN General Assembly @UN_PGA, you know you are doing something right. Congratulations #MarketsforChange @unwomenpacific @dfat @CanadaDev ! #GenerationEquality – at Myanmar
75-90% of all vendors across the Pacific are women. The #MarketsForChange project is a great example of a high impact partnership between vendors, local government, @FijianGovt, @UN_Women and development partners, changing women’s lives for the better

New analysis finds that almost 90% of people hold some bias against women - and around 50% feel that men make better political leaders.
We must urgently tackle bias & prejudices and close the vast gender power gap that persists worldwide. bit.ly/2TD6syV

With vast areas of ocean filled with remote communities across islands, the geography of the Pacific makes the challenges of leaving no one behind so much bigger. Proud that the @UN system is fighting everyday to reach every corner of this region. @UN_Pasifika - we thank you.

With only 10 years to go, much work remains to deliver on our promise of the #GlobalGoals.
That’s why we are making the 2020s a “Decade of Action” - to generate a fair globalization through ambition, innovation and solutions for everyone, everywhere.
