A generation of children is growing up amid conflict and uncertainty accross the #Sahel. When schools close, children lose more than an education. They lose safety, stability and opportunities for the future. bit.ly/3PTIvEI #EducationCannotWait

The lean season is only beginning. As conflict, climate shocks and economic pressures deepen across the #Sahel, 15.4 million people are expected to face acute hunger, leaving many families uncertain where their next meal will come from. bit.ly/3PTIvEI

In North-East Nigeria, rapidly spreading cases of cholera are placing millions at risk. I’ve allocated $4M from the UN’s Emergency Fund, CERF, to help humanitarians provide fast treatment, safe water and sanitation, and community outreach to contain the outbreak.
