This crisis is about inequality. It's about the rise of global oligarchy. The ultra-wealthy are shaping rules to benefit themselves at the expense of everyone else. Learn more oxfamamerica.org/press/pressโ€ฆ #UNGA79

The worldโ€™s billionairesโ€”mostly men from the Global Northโ€”have seen their wealth grow by over $3 trillion since 2020. Meanwhile, 5 billion people have gotten poorer. This level of inequality is unsustainable. #UNGA79
How do we build a fairer global system that challenges oligarchy and delivers for the Global South? We explore the answers tomorrow at the 'Multilateralism in an Era of Global Oligarchy,' event co-organized by @FordFoundation and Oxfam. Follow along here: youtube.com/live/7C_pDR41fFoโ€ฆ #UNGA79

Makoma Lekalakala says the just transition is an opportunity for restructuring local economies & moving away from business as usual. It is an opportunity to have a different form of economic movement where people live. Opportunities in agro cultivation, eco-tourism etc #AMI2022
