Failed rains at the end of 2025 have pushed nearly 26 million people into extreme hunger in East Africa. Wells are drying up, crops are failing & livestock are dying. Women and girls are walking up to 15km for a little water, as water prices are soaring ➡ africa.oxfam.org/latest/press...

Last year, 45% of all #UNSC resolutions addressed crises in Africa yet countries have no permanent voice in the room. When those who are most impacted aren’t represented, decisions fall short. It’s time for African leaders to push for a meaningful reform.

“COP30 offered a spark of hope but far more heartbreak, as the ambition of global leaders continues to fall short of what is needed for a livable planet. People from the Global South arrived in Belém with hope, seeking real progress on adaptation and finance, but rich nations refused to provide crucial adaptation finance.
