You might have heard that “no one has died” as a result of disruptions to life-saving foreign assistance funding.
This narrative is demonstrably false and incredibly dangerous.

Ebola has passed 10,000 cases. Stopping its spread requires urgent investment in frontline health workers, access to treatment and the health systems that keep everyone safe. one.org/us/press/ebola-outbr…

DRC’s #Ebola outbreak is the second deadliest on record and still growing. Strained health systems, unpaid health workers and funding gaps are undermining containment. Stopping Ebola requires investing in the systems that keep everyone safe.

🌍 #WorldFoodDay
More than 266 million people face acute hunger today. Hunger is one of the few crises we can see coming and know how to prevent, but only if we act before communities reach catastrophe.
Let’s keep food security on the global agenda. #FoodSecurity

🔴 #Sudan 🇸🇩
Conflict, displacement and drought are driving an increased risk of Famine in parts of Greater Darfur and Greater Kordofan.
An immediate, significant scale-up of assistance is urgently needed. Without this, catastrophic food insecurity, acute malnutrition, and excess mortality will likely intensify, placing countless lives at risk.

Young people have a huge role to play in shaping what Africa becomes next.
And if you’re a young African, that includes you.
The ideas you pursue, the businesses you build, the stories you tell, the solutions you create and the communities you strengthen all have a part to play in shaping the future. 🌍🤝🏽
There’s no single way to contribute, either. Your creativity, ambition and perspective all matter — whether what you’re building feels big or small right now.
🔁 Share this with someone helping shape Africa’s future.

We are proud to announce that ONE President and CEO, Amb. Mark Green (ret.), has been named by the German government as a Commissioner of the new South-North Commission on Development – an important opportunity to help shape what comes next for global development.
Co-chaired by former German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and former Costa Rican President Laura Chinchilla, the Commission will bring together leaders from across countries and regions to tackle shared global challenges, strengthen international cooperation, and help shape the global development agenda beyond 2030.
Mark brings decades of experience in diplomacy and global development to the role — from serving as USAID Administrator and U.S. Ambassador to Tanzania to helping craft the bipartisan legislation that established PEPFAR and the Millennium Challenge Corporation.
As Mark puts it:
“No country can solve today's global challenges alone. What unites us must count for more than what divides us. The world doesn't need another report that looks good on paper and changes nothing. We are setting the bar high – solutions that genuinely improve people's lives.”
