This tragic incident is emblematic of a deeply disturbing global trend. We need to have an honest conversation around misogyny as prime motivators of violence against women & girls. Simply blaming it on 'mental illness' is both disingenuous & a disservice to victims/survivors.

This is a BIG deal. 'There has never been a dedicated session at the G20 for govts to receive their contributions directly from the engagement groups.” A more accessible & representative G20 Brasil should further strengthen gender & social inclusion outcomes at the Leaders Summit.

Really enjoyed this film. Set in 2001 in rural India, the film revolves around the (mis)adventures of two young brides who accidentally swap places on a train journey. Entertaining w/subtle, yet compelling social commentary.

Playing now in Jakarta at Plaza Senayan XXI.

As we celebrate International Women's Day this month, join us in reflecting on the remarkable achievements and collaborative efforts of women shaping an inclusive, resilient, and connected ASEAN Community.

I condemn Thursday’s incident in Gaza in which more than 100 people were reportedly killed or injured while seeking life-saving aid.

The desperate civilians in Gaza need urgent help, including those in the north where the United Nations has not been able to deliver aid in more than a week.

Social media algorithms tend to amplify sensational, extreme and polarizing content which can exaggerate, demonize & put lives of the most marginalized in greater danger. Countering this is essential but a daunting challenge. United Nations in Indonesia demonstrates how this can be done.
