Children also remain at acute risk of physical + psychological harm and exploitation, amid reports of killing, maiming and recruitment into armed forces. Some have been separated from or have lost family members or other caregivers, rendering them even more vulnerable.

Horrific incidents of sexual violence, including rape, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, and physical violence, are being reported by women and girls who have fled the conflict in Sudan - reportedly perpetrated by fighters, criminals, and smugglers. https://t.co/HB9acMCs6q

Devastating to learn of yet another tragic shipwreck in the Mediterranean. Protection of lives at sea must be prioritised, and safe pathways increased. https://t.co/lyBp47U3ZW

Gender discrimination in nationality laws is a major cause of statelessness, impacting women, children and families. The Global Summit on Gender Equality in Nationality Laws showed that a permanent cure is within our grasp. Let’s make law reform happen. https://t.co/G8CvwNMmQP

The hidden impacts of the dire living conditions in overcrowded displacement sites in the #DRC include a deeply concerning spike in gender-based violence and cholera outbreaks. The concerns of women I heard in sites last week must be heard and their calls for peace answered. https://t.co/zmAdujCgw6

Climate change is a devastating reality for our planet and everything on it. This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we recognize the important contributions refugees, displaced people and host countries have made to the fight against it. We must do our part. Climate action is on everyone. https://t.co/fYRD5z7Tpi

6.2 million people remain displaced by violence + insecurity in the #DRC. In Rusayo, North Kivu, I had the honour of meeting women leaders from the internally displaced communities who are helping UNHCR and NGO partners prevent + respond to gender-based violence. https://t.co/2aemIYjfJg
