Nearly 132 million people will need humanitarian aid and protection in 2019. They also need more decisive action to eliminate the causes of their suffering - war, violence, persecution, poverty and drought. #Investinhumanity https://t.co/wFNqxzfmp3

Yemen: @iascch humanitarian organizations appeal for cessation of hostilities, access to millions in desperate need & resources to provide aid. We also urge parties to conflict to participate in @UN @OSE_Yemen peace talks in Sweden this week. Military options won’t end the war. https://t.co/S07OYiaIMU

Alicia was sexually abused when she was 18. She was then forced by conflict and violence to leave her home in Colombia. Today and until 10 December we stand for Alicia and for millions of abused women and girls and say #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #16Days https://t.co/LLai6yJHzd
