Access to healthcare shouldn’t depend on where you’re born. For millions, it’s not a given—it’s a lifeline. Humanitarian action makes that lifeline possible. Every life has equal worth. #HumanitarianActionWorks

Where the Rubber Meets the Road: Are We Funding Peace or Just Talking About It? 🚨 The MFF negotiations are happening now. This is the moment for Europe to fund peace. Read "The Peace we Fund: Our Rallying Call for the EU" www.eu-cord.org/the-peace-we... #GlobalEurope #GlobalGateway #InvestInPeace

We’re proud to share EU CORD’s new booklet 📘The Missing Piece in Peace Real evidence of faith based peacebuilding in Cambodia, South Sudan, DRC, Ethiopia and Somalia. Are we funding peace or just talking about it? Link in comments 👇 #PeacePays #InvestInPeace #Peacebuilding #GlobalGateway

You’ve seen highlights from our “The Missing Piece in Peace” event. Want to know the impact behind it? Our latest article shows how cross party dialogue, rooted in Christian values, can help #GlobalGateway support lasting peace and amplify communities. #PeaceConversation #PeacePays #InvestInPeace

Trust, listening and respect for tradition. That is how peace grows. Pastor Daniel of Justice for All Prison Fellowship Ethiopia shows how dialogue rooted in local communities builds lasting peace. 🎥 Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NvX... #PeacePays #InvestInPeace #PeaceConversation

Some more impressions from our #PeaceConversation on how #GlobalGateway can be responsive to local needs, involve consultation with countries and civil society and ensure investments support peace than deepen fragility. #InvestInPeace #PeacePays @barryandrewsmep.bsky.social @maritmaij.bsky.social

The Missing Piece in Peace Breakfast with MEP Hildegard Bentele at @europarl.europa.eu How can #GlobalGateway contribute to peace? 13+ MEPs engaged with Ephrem from Woord en Daad in 🇪🇹 #PeaceConversation #InvestInPeace #PeacePays @eppgroup.bsky.social @cducsueuropa.bsky.social

Are we building peace or deepening division? Week 2 of our #PeaceConversation asks how our everyday actions online and offline shape peace 🕊️ 🎥 Watch the video and reflect with us. #InvestInPeace #PeacePays #Peacebuilding #FaithInAction

What would you risk losing without peace? At #MGC2025 we spoke with global leaders about peace and why its absence is never felt equally. 🎥 Follow for more in our #PeaceConversation #InvestInPeace #PeacePays @michanederland.bsky.social @tearfund.bsky.social

Where would you place your peace point ? 💬 At #MGC2025 we asked global leaders to vote on how to invest in peace. 🥇 Fund local organisations 🤝 Invest in dialogue 🛡️ Military spending The winner was clear: lasting peace grows through communities, dialogue & education #PeacePays #InvestInPeace

#Peace is built through restoring trust where fear have weakened social cohesion. Funding enables faith-based organisations to train local leaders and strengthen the networks that allow generosity. Are we funding peace or just hoping for it? #PeaceConversation #InvestInPeace #PeacePays

Meet MEAL, a Somali-led partner of LM International driving peace on the ground. 👉 Lasting peace requires investment by for local actors like MEAL to build sustainable systems for community-led solutions. 🎥 Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hDR... #InvestInPeace #PeacePays #PeaceConversation

Peace doesn’t just happen. It is built, and it is funded. Early access to rehabilitation lessens disabilities. Our #PeaceConversation shows this needs more than goodwill. Are we funding peace, or just talking about it? #InvestInPeace #PeacePays @leprosymission-int.bsky.social

€11B more for defence. Yet military capacity alone doesn’t create peace. Patient, persistent peacebuilding does—and it’s underfunded. Today we launch Peace Conversations 🎥 Watch & join the conversation: www.eu-cord.org/the-peace-we... #InvestinPeace #PeacePays #GlobalGateway #MFF #Peacebuilding

Grateful for three rich conversations this year on faith and development. With WCC and @pard-international.bsky.social our final webinar drew 350+ registrations. Post-COP30 reflection here: www.eu-cord.org/faith-at-the...

“Peace” isn’t silence. It’s truth-telling. It’s healing. It’s justice. Let your peace speak. Even if it disturbs. Especially if it heals. www.eu-cord.org/peace-is-not... #Advent #PeaceWithJustice #FaithInPublic

Proud to stand with @CONCORD on the publication of their MFF analysis #MFF2028 #EUExternalAction

📢 A group of African and European CSOs call on AU and EU leaders to put education at the heart of their partnership. Ahead of the AU-EU Summit, our open letter urges leaders to prioritise inclusive, quality education for all, from early childhood to higher education, even in times of crisis.

Change of focus to Global Focus: danish and EU approaches to the HDP nexus and localisation @concord-europe.bsky.social @voiceeu.bsky.social

Relationships matter — NGOs are trusted partners. Ahead of the EU communication, there will be key moments to keep the dialogue going. VOICE stands ready to engage and contribute, always mindful of the lives shaped by these decisions. #EUAid #HumanitarianAction #NGO #VOICENetwork

And the damage this is to come - right now with @voice eu.bsky.socia discussing anticipatory action and where the money can come from.

⸻ Humanitarian response is visible — anticipatory action is hidden. How do we show its value and inspire donors to invest? How do we celebrate what we can’t see, yet know saves lives? #AnticipatoryAction #HumanitarianAid #Resilience #COP2030

@voiceeu.bsky.social panel on anticipatory action. We need stronger links with governments and partners. Too much remains project-based — sustainability needs policy and systems. Forecasts don’t save lives. Action does. #COP2030 #AnticipatoryAction #Resilience

@voiceeu.bsky.social Often the simple things are hard — but the hard things are often what matter most. A reminder as we close: building a more integrated EU approach to fragility takes persistence, partnership, and patience. #EU #Fragility #Peacebuilding #Resilience

@voiceeu.bsky.social Closing the 1st VOICE / Globalt Fokus panel: NGOs are not just delivery tools but key partners in fragile and nexus contexts. #EUNexus #Peacebuilding #Resilience

In fragile contexts, stepping back means losing connection. Communication isn’t a luxury — it’s the bridge between relief, recovery, and peace. Staying engaged beyond crisis response keeps trust alive and makes lasting change possible. #Peacebuilding #HumanitarianAid #Resilience #EU

EU needs to stay engaged beyond humanitarian response. The focus must return to the human dimension of fragility: conflict prevention, peacebuilding, and resilience. Economic and market recovery are key — Global Gateway entry point. #EU #Peacebuilding #HumanitarianAid #GlobalGateway

🔴 All eyes on Sudan Al Fashir has fallen to the RSF after months of siege. Civilians are trapped, hospitals bombed, aid blocked. VOICE calls on the EU & Member States to uphold #IHL and enable safe humanitarian access. Read our news and members’ reactions:: bit.ly/47ux0rN #KeepEyesOnSudan

In #copenhagen with @voice eu.bsky.socia and Global Fokus to discuss fragility, climate, localisation and humanitarian financing.

Walking Together in Hope: Day 4 of #MGC2025 ✨ Day 4 explored funding, partnerships, and storytelling as tools for sustaining impact. Sticky-note reflections reminded us to see how God has been moving over decades and how partnerships can flourish. #walkingtogetherinhope #MicahGlobal

At #MGC2025 we encounter so many inspiring faith-based actors driving change. Real impact comes from consistent, intentional actions. Together, we can build something that lasts. 💚 #micahglobal #walkingtogetherinhope

On Day 2 of #MGC2025, Tabeth explored how faith communities resist erasure and reclaim memory. From Ndabeni and Langa’s displacement to St Mark’s Church in District 6 and Eziko Cooking School training youth, resistance is memory, presence, and creating life-giving alternatives.

Can two people walk together without agreeing? At the Micah Global Consultation, this question stayed with us. Partnership is about walking side by side with respect, humility, and shared purpose, valuing diverse voices and local expertise. #walkingtogetherinhope #MGC2025 #MicahGlobal

Part two is here 💙 Meet Dr. Tabeth Masengu, the other half of our secretariat team! Together with Ruth, she keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes 👀
