"Do we need so much #selfcare if we’re no longer living in isolated, self-centered ways?" @intldogooder shares why #selfcare and #communitycare is no longer a “nice-to-have" for those working in #humanitarian #aid #globaldev & other "do-gooder" professions missinginthemission.com/2021/10/09/sel…

@alina_potts supports others to share their stories through @missing_mission . She is currently undertaking feminist participatory action research to prevent sexual exploitation and abuse and other forms of gender-based violence at @GWUGlobalWomen
So much loss! Very sad to hear about the passing of @NitaEvele, a strong voice for women in Congo and a kind and wonderful human. Rest in peace, Nita. We miss you so much already.
Le pays vient de perdre l'une des ses plus belles âmes, @NitaEvele. Cette nouvelle est bouleversante et insupportable. Que ton âme repose en paix grande sœur, compatriote et activiste. Tu as été de tous les combats dans l'ombre. Mes Pensées à ta famille et au Dr @DenisMukwege
As I watch the Afghan evacuations, I remember being left behind in Iran in 1979, when everybody I knew fled the country at a time of revolution and war. My twin brother and I were 6 years old. This is the story of what happened after everybody left:
Today is the second anniversary of Hodan's (AUN) passing ❤. We would like to thank those that have supported and honored the legacy of Hodan Nalayeh. We have heard you and we'll be re-launching Integration TV. youtube.com/watch?v=P_TIWo…
Today we mourn with @MSF for Maria Hernandez, Yohannes Halefom Reda & Tedros Gebremariam Gebremichael, who were traveling in #Tigray yesterday when contact was lost. This morning they were found dead, a few metres from their vehicle. #NotATarget #HealthUnderAttack #Ethiopia #Aid
Terrible news from Ethiopia. Our thoughts are with the families, friends and colleagues of Yohannes, Tedros and Maria, who were killed today msf.org/msf-mourns-thr…
@missing_mission @mercycorps Thank you so much. Tonight I’m in the company of all the girls that were hurt along with me. It’s very sad they can’t speak out, so I am speaking for them. I feel like theyre with me
Thank you @TaniaCHumphrey for your courage & relentlessness in fighting for accountability for yourself and other survivors of abuse. Both for the violence perpetrated against you, and it’s cover-up. @mercycorps #AidToo #SEA #humanitarian Full statement: x.com/taniachumphrey…
Today, Mercy Corps publicly released a report on an independent investigation by the Freeh Group International Solutions that looked into what happened to me and others under the auspices of humanitarian missions. You can read the report here: mercycorps.org/sites/default/… 2/
@unkyoka @Nanjala1 Have felt this strongly since ~age 8, growing up in America & then especially once I started living overseas—as a “migrant worker” although called an “expat” or “aid worker.” Ideas of what is “enough” “abundance” “fortune” are so misaligned to true richness...how to change that?
It is with a heavy-heart and with a deep sense of gratitude that the Nalayeh Family accepts the community’s recommendation and in turn the York Region District School Board’s decision to rename the school in question with Hodan’s name. With it, comes a tremendous responsibility
During her confirmation, @ODNIgov Avril Haines pledged to advocate for an Executive Order that includes reporting on strikes & civilian casualties caused by all US Gov’t agencies and called for increased transparency when it comes to use of force.
“Unfortunately, #conflict has proven one of the few human activities that #coronavirus cannot disrupt & our [#humanitarian] community will remain vulnerable to its challenges long after the virus has receded.”-Nic Lee of @INSOinfo in @Telegraph #NotATarget telegraph.co.uk/global-health/…
In 2020, INSO recorded over 1,500 NGO incidents which resulted in 210 abductions, 150 injuries and 75 deaths, across 14 countries. This is just 4% fewer incidents than were recorded in 2019, despite Coronavirus restrictions. Explore the data: NGOsafety.org/KDD
“understand how aid distributions may create or reinforce opportunities for sexual exploitation and abuse” I want to think this 👆 never happened when I was in charge… but I can see how easily it could have escaped me… 😔 … not to mention if some colleagues were in charge 😒
@CommonsIDC report led by @SarahChampionMP found that “#Aid organizations should seek to mitigate the power imbalances through better engagement with the local population”. Findings from #EmpoweredAid highlight examples of how to do so: bit.ly/3sqtwRX #AAP #Localisation
Unintended illustration of the intersecting, structural challenges Lebanese activists face every day: power cuts occcur as @gab_riell_a is presenting & she doesn’t miss a beat, continues to speak to us in the dark. Can’t stop won’t stop. @Ai4Women @MimiSfeir @LinaAbiRafeh #16Days
Spoke to a young woman of colour in #globaldev whose manager told her to employ more emotional intelligence in the way she speaks about #racism at work. Anyone else feel emotional intelligence gets weaponised by dominant groups to prevent us bringing our full humanity to work? 1/
