Being of Greek descent, this documentary was profoundly eye-opening for me. We think we know history, we think we know the present. There is still so much to learn.

#NeverAgain should mean never again. Anywhere.

Today is Winnie-The-Pooh Day. It commemorates the birthday of A.A. Milne, who wrote Winnie-the-Pooh.
But without Canada, there would have never been a Winnie, Tigger, Rabbit, Eeyore, or the Hundred Acre Wood.
Let's learn more about Winnie the Pooh and Canada!

🧵1/9

This image is a scene from the classic animated series featuring Winnie the Pooh. In the photo, Winnie the Pooh, the beloved bear character, is standing in front of a wooden door set into a large tree trunk, which is likely the entrance to his home in the Hundred Acre Wood. Pooh is wearing his iconic red t-shirt and is holding up a piece of paper with some writing on it. The paper appears to have the words "Owl's" and "New House" written on it, suggesting it might be a note or a sign related to Owl, another character from the series. The setting is outdoors, with some greenery and a wooden block toy visible on the ground to the left, adding to the whimsical and child-friendly atmosphere of the scene. The art style is characteristic of the original Winnie the Pooh animations, with soft, warm colors and a gentle, hand-drawn look.

Le chemin se fait en marchant et aujourd'hui cela m'a amené à participer à une table ronde avec mes collègues ambassadeurs au Costa Rica pour se parler avec des jeunes en relations diplomatiques au début de leur propre carrière.

The path is made by walking and today it led me to participate in a round table with ambassador colleagues in Costa Rica to speak with young people in diplomacy at the beginning of their own careers.

Last week we welcomed Diana López, a 🇨🇦 dancer of Mexican and Indigenous heritage, to the 🇨🇷 International Arts Festival.

Son oeuvre, NOMADA, présentait un voyage inspiré par des histoires de déplacement, de connexion aux éléments et d'autonomisation des femmes.

Our 🇨🇦 team in 🇭🇳 joins in #16Days — calling for an end to gender-based violence, especially against women and girls. Why? Nearly 1 in 3 women have been subjected to physical and/or sexual violence (source: WHO).

Les droits des femmes sont des droits de la personne.
