Three takeaways from @ParisPeaceForum: Paris Agreement turns 10 with Brazil leading climate push, food security everywhere, and Ukraine - where Howard Buffett is largest private donor. More insights:


USAID gutted. Europe pulling back. Everyone's scrambling for Plan B. But what if the answer isn't new donors - it's a new frame? Every health dollar trains workers, builds markets, grows economies. Health isn't a cost - it's infrastructure.


Power shift: @gatesfoundation is @WHO's largest funder. @USAID gone, EU aid slashed, billionaires hold $16T. When private wealth fills the public health gap, what guardrails do we build? Just shared insights in Health: A Political Choice: edition.pagesuite.com/html5/reader/p… @glogovproj

Samantha Power's takeaway from USAID shutdown: Development orgs and social enterprises have freedoms govt never had — faster decisions, flexible funding, direct local partnerships. Her message: use that edge. @NEIDonors @TPIPhilanthropy 📷 Craig Keenan Photography

The systems driving multilateralism & global devt are being tested like never before. Yet 1600 ppl still showed up to @devex Impact House to push forward. That tells you something about this community. We’re doing this again @WorldBank/@IMF mtgs next month. Stay tuned. #UNGA80


Left #UNGA80 more hopeful than when I arrived. Yes, UN reform struggles, but real innovation is alive: African leaders redesigning aid architecture, philanthropists scaling practical solutions, tech-driven local approaches gaining traction. What’s your take?
