AI-generated sexualised images, videos or audio of children are child sexual abuse material. Even without an identifiable victim, it normalises the sexual exploitation of children.
UNICEF calls urgent action to prevent and protect children from this escalating threat.
news.un.org/en/story/202...
There is an alarming rapid rise in the volume of AI-generated sexualised images circulating, including cases where photographs of children have been manipulated and sexualised.
Deepfake abuse is abuse, and its harm is real.
Another tragedy of the desperate:
At least 53 migrants and refugees – including two babies – are dead or missing after a large rubber dinghy capsized off the coast of Libya.
No person fleeing conflict, persecution, or hunger should have to die trying to reach safety.

As the #climate crisis deepens, ambition narrows.
🌍 #COP30 cannot be only about negotiations — it must be about #communication.
Its legacy will be measured by whether it restores trust, revives ambition & reconnects people to the urgency of #ClimateChange.

Complex issues need more than facts — they need stories that connect evidence to daily realities.
Facts inform. Narratives build trust, meaning & action.
When evidence meets story, communication becomes impact.

Known as #EarthOvershootDay, today we’ve used up all the resources Earth can renew in a year.
We are living like we have 1.7 planets.
We only have one.

One global pact quietly changed the course of our planet’s future.
Not only did it help heal the ozone layer, but it’s also reversing the impacts of climate change.

The EU’s leadership in climate mitigation is more important than ever but requires balancing w/ priorities on energy security, affordability & competitiveness. IRENA's Regional Energy Transition Outlook calls for strategic inv. in #renewables & infrastructure. Read now: bit.ly/4neA56o
What will it take to future-proof #Europe’s energy system? IRENA’s new #EU Outlook, developed with the EU Commission, charts a clear course—linking climate ambition with infrastructure, affordability, and resilience. Explore now: www.irena.org/Publications...
New IRENA data indicates slow progress rate towards #3xRenewables. At the current rate, total renewables capacity will reach just 10.3 TW, falling short of the 11.2 TW needed. IRENA continues to monitor progress, identify barriers, & provide guidance on the #EnergyTransition. bit.ly/3IjdINm
Renewables made up 93% of all new power capacity in 2024, non-renewables, just 7%. The contrast underscores a structural transition. Yet current growth rate remains below the level required to achieve 3xRenewables by 2030. www.irena.org/Publications/2025/Jul/Renewable-energy-statistics-2025
