“The real difficulty is that every decision made during the last years in #Afghanistan has worsened the situation for women and girls.

We need to increase the political pressure. But until then, we need to find a way to do our job.”

RT @MPopowskiEU: Today at the #EHF2023, I spoke about our humanitarian response in #Ukraine.

We might be aligned with one side of the conflict, but we are on the right side of history.

This doesn’t change anything in our compliance with the four humanitarian principles.

RT @UNReliefChief: It is essential to carefully listen to what people in the world's crisis zones tell us.

The European Humanitarian Forum is an opportunity for the international community to come together and discuss ways to better respond to global crises.

RT @FilippoGrandi: A lesson from the humanitarian response in Ukraine is one of equity. The issue is not that Ukrainians receive too much — the needs are dramatic! — but that there is too little to respond to other crises. #EHF2023 is a valuable opportunity to discuss this and other urgent issues.

RT @JanezLenarcic: If all the people in need of humanitarian aid right now constituted a country, it would be the third-largest country on earth.

This is a huge challenge – and we must rise to it together.
