This week, while all eyes are on New York City where world leaders are meeting for the General Assembly of the United Nations, another exciting event is taking place: UNICEF Canada and the women of The 25th Team are also gathered in New York to discuss global issues.
Today, as the UN General Assembly gets underway, Prime Minister Trudeau addressed the global body for the first time. His remarks emphasized the importance of embracing diversity, supporting a strong humanitarian response for those who have been uprooted around the world, promoting global health, and achieving the agenda for sustainable development. David Morley, UNICEF Canada`s President and CEO, is in New York and had the following response:
Bayan Yammout was born in Beirut, Lebanon during the civil war where she spent 17 years living in a war zone. Bayan witnessed first-hand what it means to be a child impacted by conflict – hiding in bomb shelters, searching for water and losing family members. She grew up seeing her parents helping others by distributing UNICEF emergency supplies in shelters, providing educational activities to children, transporting injured people to the hospital, and risking their lives to help others.
UNICEF has revised its humanitarian appeal for Nigeria from US$ 55 million to US$ 115 million to assist an additional 750,000 people who can now be reached across conflict-affected areas in the northeast of the country.
