acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc… At the UNGA this week, Australia MUST support the UNGA draft resolution on the SDGs on the agreed target of 0.7%. The government should announce a plan for getting to the OECD average of 0.36% GNI for Aid. Were currently .19% GNI. We're watching 🇦🇺

Australia is proud to support Yawan Mut (pictured) and the women of Mari Village in Western’s South Fly District with essential business and financial literacy skills to grow their own businesses and generate income to support their families. #PNGAusPartnership
ACFID warmly welcomes the generous and principled humanitarian response by the Albanese government to addressing dire hunger in countries around the world. A great demonstration of leadership and a common sense of humanity. canberratimes.com.au/story/8212527/…
30 minutes that will show you why Australia needs to do more on fighting famine. A brilliant and moving piece of journalism on the hunger crisis on this week's Foreign Correspondent by reporter Stephanie March and camerman Matthew Davis. abc.net.au/news/programs/…
Australian NGO leaders at Parliament to advocate to the government to build a more stable and prosperous region and world, by investing more in Australian aid. Australia gives .2% of GNI to aid; the OECD average is .33% GNI. We are the 9th largest economy but 21 in OECD.
Talking climate & aid with Senator David Pocock, and how Australia's climate aid will need to scale up to ensure credibility with our bid to host the Climate COP. ACFID'S call is that climate aid is new and additional not taken from existing poverty alleviation programs.
