A promise across generations: in Abidjan, Africa united behind the Demographic Compact. Delivering our collective pledge, Minister @Nasseneba_Toure reminded us that policy is at its best when it protects families, champions women & girls, and unlocks opportunities for youth.

1/2. Rétrospective du 4 novembre. Santé maternelle, droits reproductifs et égalité des sexes nourrissent la coopération Côte d’Ivoire et UNFPA. En marge du Dialogue démographique, Dr Diene Kéita a été reçue par la Ministre des Affaires étrangères Mme Kaba Nialé.

6 in 10 of #Africa’s people are under 25. Standing in #Abidjan, that energy is unmistakable! Demographic momentum is not an automatic dividend, it takes real investment in education, health and jobs. At @UNFPA, we ensure youth lead the way. What investment matters most?

1/3. Rétrospective du 3 novembre. Le dividende démographique ne se décrète pas. Il se construit grâce à des lois, des politiques ambitieuses et des investissements durables dans le capital humain. À Abidjan, le #PrédialogueParlementaire a placé cet enjeu au cœur des échanges.

Demographic change belongs at the centre of economic governance. Deep thanks to @Gouvciofficiel, @_AfricanUnion, @AfDB_Group, @ECA_OFFICIAL & our youth delegates for shaping this milestone. Abidjan nous a donné un cap; à nous de le tenir! 🔗 unf.pa/afdc

Valuable discussion with @AfDB_Group President Dr. Sidi Ould Tah. To unlock opportunities for Africa, we must prioritize maternal health, & innovation, invest in young people, and strengthen population data. Together, @UNFPA and AfDB are translating our partnership into impact.

Demographic change is inevitable. Its consequences are not. As #DemographicFutures closes in Abidjan, one thing is clear: our success will not be judged by what was said here, but by what changes in people’s lives after today. Abidjan set the course, now we deliver. 🇨🇮🌍

“No one will build your future for you. Tell us what you want—and the sky is the limit!” Incredible energy at #DemographicFutures Youth Dialogue in Abidjan! Africa’s youth aren't waiting on the sidelines—bringing bold policy ideas and that same fire to the dance floor! 🇨🇮✨

Côte d’Ivoire is a continental champion of demographic resilience, human capital & investment. Thankful to Côte d'Ivoire for hosting #DemographicFutures. Inspiring exchange with Vice-President H.E. Tiémoko Meyliet Koné on backing it with the highest political commitment. 🇨🇮

A warm meeting in Abidjan with H.E. Ms. Nialé Kaba, Senior Minister of Foreign Affairs. Côte d’Ivoire’s leadership on demographic foresight at #DemographicFutures shows what is possible when governments and partners align around a shared vision for the future. 🇨🇮

Opening #DemographicFutures in Abidjan with PM Robert Beugré Mambé. Africa’s demographic transformation offers great opportunity. Its future will be shaped not by population projections, but by investments in health, education & youth. Women’s health is economic infrastructure.

Care must reach where the paved road ends. In Abidjan, I joined Minister Souleymane Diarrassouba & Prof. Mamadou Samba to hand over 2 @UNFPA mobile clinics for Bounkani & Tchologo, plus training mannequins for midwives at INFAS. Every mother deserves care at the last mile.

Demography is not destiny. Policy is. Young people shouldn’t have to wait their turn to lead. Ahead of the Demogrpahic Futurs Dialogue in #Abidjan, I urged parliamentarians to back commitments with real budget choices: investing in healthcare, education & opportunity.

Progress is built through policy, funded through budgets, and measured in people’s lives. Speaking with parliamentarians in #Abidjan, I stressed that our future isn't decided by numbers alone. It comes down to the bold choices leaders make today to invest in people.

The last CEB meeting of @UN leaders convened by @antonioguterres came back to what he has always reminded us: we’re here to deliver for the people counting on us. Thank you Secretary-General for your principled leadership. Our work continues and so does the example you’ve set.

I arrived in #Abidjan ahead of the Demographic Futures Dialogue. What will it take to turn Africa’s demographic transformation into shared prosperity & resilience? Our future isn't decided by numbers, but by choices: supporting schools, health & real opportunities for youth.

I am appalled by the death of former @UNFPA colleague Mohammed el Shami while in the custody of the Houthi de facto authorities in Yemen. He was serving with @UNHumanRights. I extend my condolences to his loved ones & echo the call for the release of all detained UN personnel.
