I join SG @antonioguterres: this is a moment of opportunity. An opportunity to invest in Africa to harness the green and blue transitions and to unlock its unique renewable potential powering the future — of the continent, and the world.
The fossil fuel age is flailing & failing. We're at the dawn of a new & clean energy era. An era where cheap, abundant, renewable energy powers a world rich in economic opportunity. We have the tools to power the future for humanity. This is our moment of opportunity.
Over the weekend in Gaza, we saw yet more mass shootings & killings of people seeking @UN aid – an atrocious & inhumane act which I utterly condemn. We need an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages & unimpeded humanitarian access.

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” Nelson Mandela’s words have stayed with me for decades — a source of strength in the face of challenge, and a call to defy cynicism and indifference. For the SDGs. For people. For planet. #NelsonMandelaDay
Progress on the SDGs give me hope. Now is the time to build on what works, drive action, and keep pushing forward. The 2025 High-Level Political Forum must reignite our shared ambition — with lessons, partnerships, and momentum to deliver for people and planet.
We’ve come far in ten years — but we have much further to go. Let’s build on the momentum and take decisive action to deliver the #SDGs and keep the promise of leaving no one behind.
The Sustainable Development Goals Report is a call to action – together, we can build the sustainable future everyone everywhere deserves. But only 35% of the #GlobalGoals targets are on track. Progress is still possible, but we must act with urgency, unity & unwavering…
Across my travels, I’ve seen youth harness digital tools and creativity to transform their communities. They are moving — full of ideas, energy, and potential. Let’s make sure they have the enabling environment, AI and digital skills they need to unlock their power to drive the…

INNA LILLAHI WA INNA ILAIHIR RAJI’UN My heart is heavy as I join the people of Nigeria in mourning the passing of our former President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR. Serving as Minister in his government was an honor — and one guided by the values he lived: discipline, humility, and…

New HIV infections have dropped 40% since 2010 — proof that progress is possible when we stand together. The last mile of the global AIDS response must remain a priority — saving lives, strengthening health systems, and leaving no one behind. #GlobalAIDSUpdate2025 @UNAIDS
What gives me hope? Every young leader, every woman, every change-maker who refuses to give up on the right to a better future. On this first-ever International Day of Hope, let us #BeHope, advance the SDGs, and keep the promise to leave no one behind.
On #Srebrenica30, we honor the victims, pay tribute to their memory, and stand in solidarity with survivors –specially the women– and their families. Let us say it loud and clear: #NeverAgain.
Grateful for the UN family in The Gambia @UNGambia — steadfast in supporting the country’s key transitions and advancing peace, justice, and the SDGs.
Inspiring exchange with @FirstLady_GMB of The Gambia. Sharing a commitment to advancing opportunities for women and youth, ending GBV, and leaving no one behind. Caring for our communities is how sustainable development begins.
During my visit to The Gambia, I met with the mayor and talented MSME owners driving the country’s textile and fashion industry. By empowering women and youth with skills, The Gambia is accelerating progress on the #SDGs.
