@UNOPS strongly condemns the attack on the Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza. All civilians must be protected. All civilian infrastructure must be protected. All humanitarian corridors must be opened and protected. And all efforts are needed in getting an immediate ceasefire.

As the unimaginable, tragic events in Gaza continue, it gives me great sadness to announce the death of Loai Yaghi and several members of his family in Gaza last night, following an air strike in Deir Al Balah. Loai was a dedicated colleague and friend to many in our team in

A pleasure to speak with students of @CofGCollege this morning. It is important to remember that it is their future we are working hard to protect, but their voice must be heard. #COP26

Very proud to announce @UNOPS have achieved #GenderParity (a workforce of 50% women and 50% men). This is a truly impressive accomplishment. However, we know that true inclusiveness goes beyond gender equality. It considers and responds to other forms of diversity. 1/2

We have achieved gender parity in our workforce – at a pivotal moment for women’s rights, as we push towards the #2030Agenda with #COVID19 still raging.

Strongly support this initiative of @UN SG @antonioguterres . The humanitarian system - the last resource for those most in need - is collapsing. International community must use all its influence to end this crisis.

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General. Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.

Glad to meet my friend @SelwinHart - @UN ASG for Climate Action. Infrastructure = 80% GHG emissions & 85% adaptation costs; public procurement = 15% GHG. These are core areas for @UNOPS . We stand ready to provide practical solutions to narrow the climate implementation gap.

Very glad to meet Commissioner @ElisaFerreiraEC and discuss climate action ahead of COP28. Almost 80% of global emissions are related with infrastructure. In addition to finance & policy, it is crucial to address the implementation gap through + @UNOPS - @EU_Commission partnership.

More than half of UNOPS work is in fragile & conflict affected states. And around 30% of UNOPS operations contribute to #SDG3 – good health & wellbeing. On #WorldHealthDay , I thank colleagues in the @UNOPS family & our partners for everything you do to bring healthcare to all.

. @UNOPS does important work to further progress on the #SDGs . That's why @USUN has aggressively pushed for reforms at @UNOPS since last year's scandal. It was good to meet the new executive director Jorge Moreira da Silva to discuss our shared commitment to these reforms.

I'm in Herat, Afghanistan, witnessing firsthand @UNOPS response to the earthquake. Working alongside partners, we're focused on rescue, recovery, & debris clearance & immediate cash support to 48K affected families. Immediate and mid-term recovery remains our priority.
