Happy birthday @unitednations! 76 years ago, the UN Charter entered into force and the UN formally came into existence for a safer and more sustainable world. The EU and the UN work hand in hand for a more peaceful and prosperous future for all. Multilateralism is the best path to meet the challenges that lie ahead. We are now looking forward to the #COP26 – organised by the 🇺🇳 UN. This will be a moment of truth for the global community to achieve the promises of the Paris Agreement. 📌 Share your birthday wishes to the UN with 🎂 🇺🇳 in the comments! 📷 Illumination of our headquarters in blue in 2020 to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the UN © European Union, 2020 / Source: EC - Audiovisual Service / Photographer: Claudio Centonze @cop26uk #COP26 #UN #UnitedNations #UNDay #Cooperation #Peace #Security #HumanRights #SustainableDevelopment #ClimateAction #International #Europe #EU #EuropeanUnion

Reposted from @integratedindigo Mohammed Bello is a former fisherman whose livelihood has been disrupted by the insurgency. Starting all over hasn’t been easy as he has to travel 200km from his home to earn a living. Three years ago, he got a helping hand from EU funds with which he was able to begin a fish farm project. Now he has hope for a better future. #Hope #EUdocumentary #EUinNigeria #BornoStory @euinnigeria @factstory.agency

The insurgency has actually led more people especially in rural areas to discover the benefits of public education. When displaced people were forced to flee to Maiduguri, many of their children enrolled for the first time in camp schools. Now, they are going back to school to pursue their education #Hope #EUdocumentary #EUinNigeria #BornoStory

Heavy fighting between insurgents and Nigerian army has created 304,562 Nigerian refugees, 2.1 million internally displaced persons and affected the livelihood of millions propagating a culture of deprivation and extreme poverty.�#Hope #EUdocumentary #EUinNigeria #BornoStory

In 2014, insurgents kidnapped 276 schoolgirls from Chibok. Also, due to the insurgency, many schools across Borno were destroyed and school has now become synonymous with fear in many cities of the North-East. #Hope #EUdocumentary #EUinNigeria #BornoStory

Reposted from @europeancommission ☎️: "Hey, what are we celebrating today?" 📞: "The International #DayOfTheGirl child!" Digital technologies play a fundamental role in enabling girls to achieve their dreams, passions, ambitions and rights. The gender digital divide in connectivity, devices and use, skills and jobs is real. 2.2 billion people below the age of 25 do not have internet access at home, with girls more likely to be cut off. We join the @unitednations efforts in ensuring that girls are connected, supported and empowered so that we are co-leading the journey of digital transformation - regardless of race, gender, language, ability, economic status and geographic origin. 🔍 Data from the United Nations 📸 © European Union, 2021 / Source: EC - Audiovisual Service & Unicef / Photographers: François Durand, Benas Gerdziunas, Ismail Taxta, Jadranko Marjanovic, Ludovic Le Couster. #InternationalDayOfTheGirl #GenderEquality #Equality #UnionOfEquality #Girl #Child #Digital #DigitalEU #EU #EuropeanUnion

How my role as member of the #EU #YouthSoundingBoard will help me learn new strategies on youth engagement~ Zara Mohammed Kareto ~~~~~~~~ During my engagement with the YSB, I would like to learn new strategies concerning youth engagement activities while taking into consideration social inclusion, share my practical knowledge with other members, learn from colleagues, contextualize what I learned to fit into my societal context, taking into consideration the sensitivity of certain issues and differences of societal setup, norms, and culture. Obtain lessons learned, best practices, and issues that cut across the globe and design action plans to contribute to the Board's aim and objective. I will also carry out the 4 aspects that the project covers (advise, influence, monitor and inform).

My passion for democratic growth, policy development, reasons why I applied to be a member of #EU’s #YouthBoard~Stephen Adavize Onimisi  ~~~~~~~~ As a lawyer, humanitarian and youth advocate passionate about democracy, governance and policy formulation, I applied to be a member of the Board because of my desire to have the voices of youth heard. I strongly believe in the capacity of youth to cause deep-seated change in society through their participation in governance, policy development and democratic growth. I am delighted to be on the Board and I see the board membership as an opportunity to share and incubate ideas that will foster peace and unity, transform lives, influence policies, build strategies and develop programmes for overall national development.
