Happy UN Day! I’m so happy to have joined my team in Barbados and Eastern Caribbean, joining the fight for fair access to development finance on affordable terms for small island developing states in the Easter Caribbean and across the world. #ClimateJusticeNow
Happy United Nations Day! 🇺🇳

What an honour to be invited to address the PM Hon. James Marape at the National Development Forum and celebrate the close collaboration between his office and UNDP in Papua New Guinea on the Reset PNG initiative, a highlight of my 3-year tenure

Oceans are warming, the climate is changing, and pushing species to extinction and putting lives in peril. Our future depends on the choices we make and the actions we take. Join Una on her journey to the Pacific as she discovers more about the planet’s resources and energy.
A special thanks to the people and Government of Japan for the partnership with @UNDP on this #GreenTransformation journey for the people of the Pacific.

With only 18% of the country connected to the grid, Papua New Guinea has the chance to leapfrog to renewable energy. See how @UNDP and the Government of Japan are working with the Government of PNG to build a 1 Megawatt solar farm in Buin, powering communities and innovation hubs that will provide access to the digital world, and support in advancing the region’s economy. #WhatAreYouDoing #PacificGreenTransformation

After repeated abuse, Mathilda found shelter at a @UNDP-funded safe house operated by Kyokonda Community Development Association.
“Knowing I was in a secure environment allowed me to focus on rebuilding my life. I’m deeply grateful for the care I found here," she says.

We need to take action now to end #sorceryaccusationrelatedviolence in #PNG and especially in the #Highlands where it is becoming an epidemic and the victims are almost always women #16DaysOfActivism
Annabelle is one of the thousands of women in 🇵🇬 who have experienced sorcery accusation-related violence.
See how @UNDPinPNG is working with the Catholic Diocese of Wabag to provide shelter for survivors and advocate against this practice.

MUST WATCH!!!! One year after I witnessed a peace agreement, communities tell of the benefits of peace.
Kids back in school, hospitals reopened, fields being cultivated again. So proud of our partnership with United and Catholic Churches, @UNPeacebuilding @koicafiji @FCDOGovUK
A year ago, @UNDP & United Church PNG mediated a peace agreement between 4 warring clans from Tigibi, Hela Province, which marked the end of 8 years of brutal tribal conflict.
