6K Followers 4K Following Executive Director at the Board of the World Bank Group representing the Nordic - Baltic states 🇩🇰🇪🇪🇫🇮🇮🇸🇱🇻🇱🇹🇳🇴🇸🇪.Views are my own.So proud to have organized an event that acknowledged the Netherlands’ role in enslavement in South Africa - together w/ my colleagues from @SAMissionNY & @KingdomNL_UN. The past can be painful to discuss. But the future seems hopeful when countries come together to heal.
Ironically, at @UNIraq, it wasn’t always easy to meet Iraqis, because of our security rules. So, our local colleagues often helped me understand what was happening outside our compound. Today Mohammad Al-Anbari visited UNHQ and I was happy to show him around our mother ship.
What a privilege to get a private tour of @AFBurialGrndNPS from the architect who designed it, @RodneyJELeon. Our team learned how he used African cultural elements to tell a powerful story of resistance and resilience.
At the UN today, Sir Hilary Beckles, Vice-Chancellor of The University of the West Indies and Chair of the @CARICOMorg Reparations Commission, called for “reparatory justice for those who continue to suffer the legacies of colonization, apartheid, and slavery.”
I first learned about the transatlantic trade in enslaved Africans in history class. But we're not just talking about the past here. Because the insidious legacies of that shameful era are still very much with us today. And those include racism. #RememberSlavery #FightRacism
Happening now: Yolanda Renee King, granddaughter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., tells the General Assembly about the important role that youth must play to #RememberSlavery and #FightRacism.
“And I am proud to be a feminist, representing a feminist organization that pushes both gender equality and women’s empowerment.”
I met a lot of talented 🇺🇸 diplomats during my year at @UNinWashington. And now, thanks to this gripping book by @richtpau, I’m learning more about their incredible stories.
Tomorrow is Intl #WomensDay. 1/3 of the 15 million people trafficked during the transatlantic slave trade were women. Enslaved women carried a triple burden: the harsh conditions of forced labor; discrimination based on the color of their skin; and gender-based exploitation.
Black History Month may be over. But we still have stories to tell - including about Martin Luther King Jr.'s trip to the UN in 1967 to present Ralph Bunche with a petition calling for an end to the Vietnamese Conflict. Watch at: youtube.com/watch?v=qqOoX8…
Today is a perfect day to visit the Ark of Return. Come see the UN’s memorial to the victims of the transatlantic slave trade. Learn about the history. Reflect on the legacies. #RememberSlavery
Two compelling exhibits on slavery and the transatlantic trade in enslaved Africans will soon open at UN Headquarters in New York. Learn more at: press.un.org/en/2024/note65…
It was a privilege to address United Voices 4 Peace's "Global Women in Music" concert this week in New York. Celebrating women composers, I also echoed the concerns of @antonioguterres, who recently noted how wars across the globe are hitting women and girls especially hard.
Today @vitorino_mo 🇵🇹, @YaniqueNissan 🇯🇲 and I took the "Real UN" series to the National High School Model UN (@NHSMUN) in New York - to give nearly 500 bright young students a frank take on what we do to foster global cooperation. More at: un.org/en/mun/real-un…
Tackling disinformation about the UN on social media isn’t a new thing. We’ve been doing it for years. 👇🏽
If you like to stay updated on #UNGA meetings, speakers lists, resolutions and vote counts, then you'll love the UN's new "iGov" portal. Check it out at: igov.un.org/home-page
Multilingualism is so key to the UN’s mission. Because if we can’t understand each other, we can’t work together to tackle global challenges. Very happy that the UN offers its staff courses in all our official languages.
So good to ring in International #WomensDay with @SAMissionNY colleagues and to learn about the #GiveHerACrown initiative. Men have a vital role to play when it comes to gender equality and women’s empowerment.
