8.8 % of global working hours were lost for the whole of last year (relative to the 4th quarter of 2019), equivalent to 255 mill full-time jobs . This is appr. four times greater than the number lost during the 2009 global financial crisis. @ILO Read more: https://t.co/RCyGujzM78

RT @WFPChief: 30 million people depend on @WFP food assistance to survive. If we can't reach them, whether that's due to lack of funds or access, we are looking at devastating consequences. That includes famine, destabilization & mass displacement. We need the world to step up, not back. https://t.co/08DYNAR0ih

RT @DrTedros: Pleased to speak at the @noradno Conference 2021 on 'A new start – together or every state for itself?', along with my brother @dagiulstein. #Norway 🇳🇴 has shown outstanding leadership in its commitment to multilateralism and supporting the @ACTAccelerator to beat #COVID19.

A new study has found that the global economy stands to lose as much as $9.2 trillion (!) if governments fail to ensure developing economy access to COVID-19 vaccines, as much as half of which would fall on advanced economies.

KLAR TALE fra @wfpchief på @tv2nyhetene i morges: "Det finnes allerede en vaksine mot sult: Det kalles mat!" Derfor vil ikke regjeringen senke ambisjonsnivået vårt når vi vet at det er større behov enn noen gang hos de aller mest sårbare i verden. @WFP @WFP_NO https://t.co/wwTkF5uVMQ

CLEAR MESSAGE from @wfpchief on @tv2nyhetene this morning: "We have a vaccine against starvation: It’s called food!" Therefore, Norway will not lower our level of ambition when we know that there is a greater need than ever for the most vulnerable in the world. https://t.co/D5V4Iiii7F

RT @jarottingen: A failure to distribute the Covid-19 vaccine in poor nations will worsen economic damage, with half the costs borne by wealthy countries. Study commissioned by @iccwbo. @DrTedros @dagiulstein https://t.co/n1PRLv52Kz

World's poor need action, not Covid vaccine nationalism! Nations outbidding each other creates an immoral race towards the abyss! https://t.co/Nwi0uC312k

@RagnhildMe Absolutt. Det er akkurat det som er området. Enormt mange barn og unge som bla blir utnyttet i gruveindustrien. Derfor denne kombinasjonen av utdanning, matsikkerhet og kamp mot menneskehandel. Det henger sammen...

Nå åpner vi ambassade i Den demokratiske republikken Kongo! Matsikkerhet, kamp mot moderne slaveri samt forebygging og bekjempelse av seksualisert vold blir viktige områder for vårt utviklingssamarbeid! https://t.co/7U1WaDir6q

RT @Utenriksdept: ‘It is very good news that @JoeBiden, on his first day as US President, announced that the US will rejoin the #ParisAgreement and will remain a member of the @WHO.’ Foreign Minister #EriksenSoreide https://t.co/94Mted5kzQ

Velkommen på Norad-konferansen 2021! Går vi mot en fremtid med mer samarbeid eller mer alenegang? Hva skal til for å nå bærekraftsmålene innen 2030, og er vi egentlig på rett vei? https://t.co/lGS8nPvRLf @noradno @bardvegar

RT @unicefchief: The US decision to join COVAX is welcome news. COVAX is our best shot at equitable access to COVID vaccines. I’m confident that, with its expertise and resources, the US will give this global effort, and UNICEF’s role in it, a major boost.

Viktig møte i en helt avgjørende fase av det internasjonale pandemiarbeidet. Strålende av finansminister @jantoresanner å gå i front her! #ACTogether #WHO #COVAX https://t.co/no3VB8Nk8P

We must start vaccinating people in all countries and not all people in some countries. I hope other countries will follow suit! https://t.co/Fvt96BbK7Z https://t.co/PlH2v9d5HP
