On #InternationalWomensDay and every day, I stand proudly in solidarity with women globally, celebrating their strength, resilience, and invaluable contributions to our world. Let’s continue to challenge stereotypes, break barriers, and strive for a more equitable world!
Humanity’s war on nature is a war on the human rights of some of the most vulnerable people: Indigenous People. Rural communities. The marginalized & dispossessed. Environmental justice & climate justice are rallying cries for ethical treatment, accountability & human rights.
On #WorldDayofSocialJustice, let us embrace empathy and collective action. We can celebrate the progress made in the fight for social justice and commit to the journey ahead. We must amplify marginalized voices, advocate for systemic change, and strive for a more just world.
Today, on #RedHandDay, or International Day against the Use of Child Soldiers, I echo the call to end this abhorrent practice and provide unwavering support to children affected by it. Join @connectWPDI and I in ensuring every child's fundamental right to a peaceful upbringing.

Peace is humanity’s greatest responsibility. As @UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres rightly says, “that responsibility belongs to us all – individually and collectively.” I join him in urging the world to meet that obligation for today and future generations.

As we reflect on the year, let's step into the new one with hope in our hearts. No matter our uncertainty or challenges, I believe our collective strength will overcome all obstacles. Wishing you all a very Happy New Year, filled with peace, safety, and light.

See you soon! Season 4 of #GodfatherOfHarlem is coming to @mgmplus next year.
Last week in Cape Town, I was immensely proud to meet 751 amazing and inspirational women who graduated from our Women Livelihood Program at @connectWPDI. It's a powerful reminder of the capacity women possess to lead transformation and guide their communities to lasting peace.
Yesterday, I was honored to open a brand new basketball🏀 court in Cape Town 🇿🇦, alongside @NBA_Africa. The court will be a hub for @connectWPDI's Peace Through Sports program, social innovation and community events. I am excited for what the future holds for communities here!

Babies are #NotATarget. Schools are #NotATarget. Children are #NotATarget. Civilians are #NotATarget. Hospitals are #NotATarget. Humanitarians are #NotATarget. Healthcare workers are #NotATarget. They must be protected. At all times. Everywhere.
✔️Last week, @ForestWhitaker was in New York for the @UN General Assembly. He participated in a series of meetings and events focused on the #UN2030 agenda and its 17 SDGs in his role as an advocate and activist for #peace and social justice. wpdi.org/news/forest-wh…
The @UN Secretary-General's @SDGAdvocates never cease to inspire. We agreed to advocate and act to keep the promise of the #GlobalGoals.
Meeting with Prof. Yunus is always so inspiring and enriching! Looking forward to working together more in the near future!
Peace means empowering our youths. Young people are the torchbearers for change and are crucial in the protection of human rights. We need to invest in them now if we are going to make peace last, everywhere, for everyone. #InternationalDayOfPeace
Excited to scale up our partnership with @EAA_Foundation! Great meeting with their CEO Fahad Al Sulaiti today in New York.
