Big congratulations to United Nations OCHA for appointing Tom Fletcher CMG as the new head. His wide experience in diplomacy, conflicts and emergencies, and passion for education and giving hope back to children will stand him in good stead. Right person at the right time for a huge and demanding role. We stand ready to help at Theirworld and Global Business Coalition for Education however we can in the face of humanitarian crisis.
A huge congratulations to my friend and former Global Business Coalition for Education colleague Tom Fletcher CMG on his appointment to head United Nations OCHA. Tom has always been a friend of Theirworld and a champion of people affected by conflict and emergency — especially children. I look forward to working with him in this role. The world needs his leadership as we navigate tumultuous times and aim to provide humanitarian relief and support where there is suffering. He understands that education is a crucial part of emergency relief, a sign of opportunity, hope, and a better future ahead. Congratulations, Tom! #UNOCHA #UN #UnitedNations #Humanitarian

The Financial Times has published a letter from our President, Justin van Fleet, supporting the argument that childcare in the US should be treated as a public good rather than a private test of families' financial resilience. It’s time to #ActForEarlyYears. 💲🔗 Read it now: https://ow.ly/9hJv50TwbUT
