    In the last year, the price of an 800g white sliced loaf has jumped by around 30p in the UK! It’s not always obvious how global events hit around the world, but with the climate crisis, Covid, and years of conflict throwing the world into chaos, the Cost of Living Crisis is a prime example. With so many of us feeling the squeeze, we’ve got to ask – is there a solution? The answer is YES. And it might surprise you. Once you hear it, you’ll see it’s not as complicated as it sounds. International investment via the International Development Association (IDA) - in infrastructure, farming, health, education, and climate resilience will create more stability worldwide, helping shield us from extreme price fluctuations in the future. In this film, we hit the streets with Max Klymenko, talking to real people to show that international investment Makes local sense. Makes global sense. #MakesTotalSense https://lnkd.in/eSnRky2i

    Yesterday at #UNGA79, we hosted a wide-ranging, dynamic event. Deborah Roberts of ABC News kicked us off with a celebration of ONE’s 20-year history of advocacy, during which our activists have taken 25 million actions and helped mobilize $1 trillion in development finance. ONE Co-Founder Jamie Drummond and ONE CEO Ndidi Nwuneli discussed ONE’s impressive history and our next 20 years of action and impact. UNDP’s Ahunna Eziakonwa, ONE’s Serah Makka, and US Treasury’s Alexia Latortue discussed Africa’s seat at the global decision-making table, why we need African solutions to global problems, and how to create equal partnerships. And ONE's David McNair launched our new Trillions Tracker, which tracks our progress to fill the current $2.5 trillion annual public spending gap for people and planet. We also discussed global health, with a debate moderated by CNN’s Larry Madowo between mPedigree’s Bright Simons and ONE’s Jenny Ottenhoff on whether the golden age of health replenishments is over, and a conversation between Africa CDC's Dr. Jean Kaseya, U.S. International Development Finance Corporation Nisha Biswal, and the United Nations' Jean-Paul Adam about the future of global health financing. Our amazing Youth Ambassador Anoushka Sinha,FRSA ended the event by reminding us that we can create a more just and equal world, if we come together as ONE and prioritize our collective future.

    "We are an interconnected bunch of countries, joined at the hip. What happens to one actually affects us all." ONE's Africa Executive Director on #UNGA this week. 👇

    As the world gathers for the United Nations General Assembly in NYC, Africa comes with high hopes and a united voice! Here's what our continent looks forward to: 1. **Climate Action** Promises without delivery serves no one. There is responsibility from the highest polluters, and they must contribute to addressing this challenge- without impoverishing low-income countries with more loans. 2. **Economic Growth & Development**We are an interconnected bunch of countries, “joined at the hip”. What happens to one actually affects us all. Let’s fix the #GlobalFinancialArchitecture. Recycling SDRs through the African Development bank is an effective, almost magical solution to this fiscal challenge. 3. **Healthcare Advances** : Mpox is telling us we have not learned from Covid-19. Vaccines are arriving too late, stockpile of vaccines for Africa located too far. Viruses know no boundaries. We must do better. ONE is hosting a policy event on 24 September on “Africa at the Forefront of Global Financing Solutions”: Focus on African-driven ideas, and feature leaders who are working to find common ground in tackling some of our most pressing challenges. 4. **Peace & Security** : Africa demands two permanent seats on the UN Security Council. The UN Security Council was set up in 1945 with just 11 members now has 15. Five countries— the US, France, the UK, Russia, and China—are permanent members. The other 10 members change every two years, chosen by the General Assembly. The key thing is that these five permanent members have veto power, meaning they can block any decision, like sending UN peacekeepers to a conflict areas. Africa also wants veto power. Veto power for all Security Council members or no security council members Let’s move forward together for a brighter, prosperous, and peaceful Africa! #UNGA2024 #AfricaUnited #GlobalGoals #SustainableFuture #NYC

    This Wednesday at #UNGA, we will be hosting an event to discuss the current financing gap for people and planet and African-led solutions for our collective future. There is currently a $2.5 billion financing gap. But ONE's new research shows we're closing that gap. We'll discuss our research, plus Africa's seat at the table in global decision-making, the future of global health replenishments, and ONE's journey of advocacy and impact as we celebrate our 20th anniversary. Tune into our livestream at 3:30pm ET this Wednesday to learn more. https://lnkd.in/eS3BX8id
