In other countries, people may succumb to old age or uncontrollable events But here in Uganda, lives are senselessly lost to something as vile as “Rubbish”. It’s infuriating that anyone should die because of rubbish. No one should die from preventable waste #Kiteezilandfill

Waste management is becoming a huge concern in a city that is expanding faster than its infrastructure can support. Streets and markets are littered with the evidence, as shown in the image above. Let's not wait for another catastrophe to occur.

It is #WorldHumanitarianDay, and it is the #ActForHumanity that #LeaveNoOneBehind.

When capacitated, youth can be key drivers of #ClimateAction. IOM is supporting Abayuuti Climate Action Network to improve the knowledge of 50 Ugandan youth on climate mobility under the #KDMECC framework, equipping them to develop practical solutions to its opportunities and challenges.

Children often pay the highest price for humanitarian crises and millions are exposed to unthinkable forms of violence, exploitation, abuse, & neglect. On #WorldHumanitarianDay, UNICEF renews its commitment to reach every child in need, wherever they are. #ForEveryChild

Hi Ola, I stand with you to #StopShell! I nominate every person under this tweet. It's URGENT: @shell plans to leave parts of old oil platform with 11,000 tonnes of oil and toxicwaste in the #NorthSea. Greenpeace International

Oil and gas giants like BP, Chevron, Eni, Equinor, Exxon, Shell, and TotalEnergies profit immensely while the climate crisis wreaks havoc. With almost 12,000 extreme weather events in the past 50 years, 2 million lives lost, and the poorest countries hit hardest. 🧵1/2
