Where youโre born is pure chance โ but the right to safety shouldnโt be. ๐ Onboard the #OceanViking, we rescue people who are simply seeking what we all deserve: a life free from fear.

Today is #BiodiversityDay. At IFRC, we care about biodiversity because healthy ecosystems are essential for food security, clean water, disease prevention, and the long-term well-being of vulnerable communities. Protecting nature protects people โ the healthy future of our lives and planet hangs in the balance.
๐ As the climate crisis fuels rising seas and coastal destruction, nature is already protecting us. Let's work with nature to protect people. โค๏ธ
