On 16 September, Laos received 1,050 tons of rice donated by China, Japan, and South Korea to assist disaster-affected communities nationwide. 

The contribution, under the ASEAN+3 Emergency Rice Reserve (APTERR) 2024 program to strengthen regional food security and disaster response, brings Laos’ total rice support this year to 3,800 tons, comprising 3,000 tons from South Korea, 500 tons from China, and 300 tons from Japan.

As part of the emergency relief effort, APTERR approved the release of 1,050 tons, now being distributed to affected families across 12 provinces, including Phongsaly, Bokeo, Luang Prabang, Xayabouly, Xieng Khouang, Houaphanh, Vientiane, Xaysomboun, Bolikhamxay, Khammouane, Savannakhet, and Salavanh.

Phoxay Sayasone, Minister of Labour and Social Welfare (MOLSW), emphasized the importance of APTERR in supporting ASEAN member states during emergencies, ensuring vulnerable communities gain access to essential food supplies while reinforcing resilience and livelihoods.

Between June and July, Laos was severely impacted by tropical storms Wutip and Wipha. The floods caused extensive damage across 14 provinces, 63 districts, and 527 villages, affecting 26,562 families, according to the report by authorities. A total of 2,709 houses were damaged, 19 people lost their lives.

The storms also destroyed 24,516 hectares of farmland and inflicted heavy damage on 14 schools, 111 roads, and 30 bridges. 

Recovery needs are estimated at over LAK 1.012 trillion (about USD 47.1 million), according to the Inter-Agency Standing Committee.

For longer-term recovery, the MOLSW, in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, plans to request the use of the remaining 2,750 tons, expected to benefit more than 316,000 vulnerable people nationwide.

Investing in Futures: Education Cannot Wait Reaches 14 Million Children in Crises Worldwide

New ECW Results Report highlights transformative education outcomes for children and adolescents in emergencies and protracted crises and calls for urgent funding to sustain progress.

NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Education Cannot Wait (ECW), the global fund for education in emergencies and protracted crises in the United Nations, today launched its Investing in Futures: 2024 Annual Results Report – revealing that mid-way through its 2023–2026 Strategic Plan, ECW and its strategic partners have reached 8.3 million crisis-affected children and adolescents across 33 countries with inclusive, quality education. This brings the total number of children reached since ECW’s inception to 14 million girls and boys.

Despite progress, education remains one of the most underfunded sectors in humanitarian responses. In 2024, only 30% of education funding requirements were met in humanitarian appeals, despite education representing just 5.4% of total Global Humanitarian Overview requirements.
Despite progress, education remains one of the most underfunded sectors in humanitarian responses. In 2024, only 30% of education funding requirements were met in humanitarian appeals, despite education representing just 5.4% of total Global Humanitarian Overview requirements.

With a strong emphasis on equity and inclusion, 51% of those reached are girls, and 43% are refugee or internally displaced children. The report demonstrates that ECW investments are driving measurable improvements: more children are enrolling, staying in school, and learning both academic and social-emotional skills. Positive shifts in gender norms are also contributing to more equitable access and participation.  

“This progress reflects the unique strength of ECW’s strategic model and the unwavering commitment of our global coalition of partners. This is not just coordination, it is a shared commitment translating into collective action,” said Sigrid Kaag, Chair of the ECW High-Level Steering Group.  

The report captures the collective efforts of more than 100 partners – including host governments, UN agencies, local and international civil society organisations, philanthropic foundations and private sector leaders – who came together in 2024 to deliver education in some of the world’s most complex crises.

At the systems level, ECW’s model of rapid response and multi-year programming continues to strengthen coordination and partnerships across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus, with increased support to local partners and national ownership.

In 2024, 39% of ECW’s US$202 million disbursements were allocated to countries classified as ‘forgotten crises’ – such as Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Haiti, Lebanon, Mali, Myanmar, Nigeria and South Sudan – underscoring the Fund’s commitment to reaching children in the most overlooked and underfunded emergencies.

The report also shows ECW and partners’ increased focus on the intersection of the climate crisis and the education crisis, with 41% of children reached in 2023–2024 – i.e. 3.4 million girls and boys – reached by programmes that supported climate change adaptation.

Despite these achievements, the report warns of a growing funding gap. By the end of 2024, ECW had mobilized US$934 million towards its 2023–2026 Strategic Plan, approximately two-thirds of its target. However, US$113 million in pledged contributions remain unpaid.

Meanwhile, escalating conflicts, forced displacement and climate-induced disasters are driving unprecedented humanitarian needs. Education systems in crisis-affected contexts are pushed to the brink, with an estimated 234 million crisis-affected children and adolescents requiring urgent education support – an 18% increase compared to three years ago. 

Yet, education remains one of the most underfunded sectors in humanitarian responses. In 2024, only 30% of education funding requirements were met in humanitarian appeals, despite education representing just 5.4% of total Global Humanitarian Overview requirements.

“Education is our best – if not the only – hope for children enduring the brunt of crises. To continue our work, and protect the significant results achieved, we are asking for renewed financial contributions from our public and private sector partners. We also look forward to expanded commitments through new innovative partnerships,” said Kaag.      

To meet its US$1.5 billion resource mobilization goal by the end of 2026, ECW requires an additional US$567 million in contributions. With this support, ECW and its partners can deliver quality education to 20 million children who need it most. Without decisive action, millions risk being left behind – not due to a lack of solutions, but because of chronic underinvestment.

Innovent’s Partner Ollin Announces Clinical Updates on IBI324 (OLN324, VEGF/ANG-2)

SAN FRANCISCO and SUZHOU, China, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Innovent Biologics, Inc. (“Innovent”) (HKEX: 01801), a world-class biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures, and commercializes high-quality medicines for the treatment of oncology, autoimmune, cardiovascular and metabolic, ophthalmology and other major disease areas, today announced that the company’s partner Ollin reported a clinical update on IBI324 (Ollin R&D code: OLN324). IBI324 (OLN324) is a higher potency, higher molar dose VEGF/Ang2 bispecific antibody in Phase 1b clinical development for patients with either wet (neovascular) age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) or diabetic macular edema (DME), the leading causes of vision loss in older and working-aged people, respectively. Ollin has completed enrollment of over 150 patients with wAMD or DME in the JADE study, a randomized, U.S.-based, Phase 1b proof-of-concept clinical trial designed to evaluate OLN324 versus faricimab for potential areas of anatomic and durability differentiation. Topline results from the study are expected in the first quarter of 2026.

Building on the proven backbone efficacy of anti-VEGF, OLN324’s substantially higher anti-Ang2 potency over the current market leader faricimab, coupled with a smaller protein format, gives OLN324 the potential for best-in-class disease control. OLN324 is being tested at higher molar doses than faricimab for greater target coverage and the potential for extended treatment durability. These features give OLN324 the potential for a differentiated, first-line standard of care profile.

“Both VEGF and Ang2 play important roles in the vascular pathologies that drive wAMD and DME. Dual targeting has the potential to improve anatomic outcomes and achieve more durable disease control compared to VEGF inhibition alone. Uptake of the first U.S. FDA-approved VEGF/Ang2 inhibitor, faricimab, underscores the interest from retinal specialists and patients for new medicines offering improved outcomes by targeting more than one driver of disease,” said Charles C. Wykoff, MD, PhD, Chairman of Research, Retina Consultants of America, and member of Ollin’s Scientific Advisory Board. “There remains meaningful room for further clinical improvement for patients. Ollin’s Phase 1b study explores the potential for differentiation of OLN324 versus faricimab from the outset.”

Dr. Lei Qian, Chief R&D Officer of General Biomedicine from Innovent Biologics, stated: “We are excited about by the progress of OLN324 (IBI324), driven forward by our partner Ollin—especially the successful enrollment completion of the JADE Phase 1b trial, which represents a key milestone that validates both parties’ strong collaboration. As a next-generation VEGF/Ang-2 bispecific antibody, OLN324 (IBI324) holds promise for better anatomic outcomes and longer durability than current standards like faricimab. We remain aligned with Ollin to speed OLN324’s development and bring this much needed therapy to market globally.”

In a completed Phase 1 single and multiple dose escalation study, IBI324 (OLN324) demonstrated promising vision and anatomic improvements in DME patients along with a favorable safety profile. IBI324 (OLN324) was discovered by Innovent and is being developed in collaboration with Ollin.

The 13th Microfilm Production Support Scheme (Music) Matching cum Kick-Off Ceremony

Fostering Cross-Sector Collaboration to Create New Opportunities for Hong Kong’s Film and Music Industries

HONG KONG, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Microfilm Production Support Scheme (Music) (“Support Scheme”), organized by the Hong Kong Association of Interactive Marketing (“AIM”) and sponsored by the Cultural and Creative Industries Development Agency (“CCIDA”), marks its thirteenth year. The Support Scheme continues to unite outstanding local talent in advertising and music to produce 32 original microfilms. It aims to nurture emerging creatives across music, digital advertising, and microfilm production, while encouraging more singers to take part in on-screen performances and advancing the development of Hong Kong’s creative industries in a richer and more diverse direction.

AIM hosts the 13th Support Scheme Matching cum Kick-Off Ceremony at the InnoCentre, Kowloon Tong. Mrs. Lowell CHO, Acting Commissioner for Cultural and Creative Industries, officiates as Guest of Honor, joined by Mr. Francis FONG, Chairman of AIM, to mark the official launch of this year’s edition.

As in previous years, the Support Scheme comprises two tiers: Tier 1 “Advertising Production Start-ups” and Tier 2 “Small Advertising Production Enterprises.” At the ceremony, Tier 1 teams are paired with singers through a drawing of lots, forming 22 creative partnerships. Tier 2 features ten self-formed teams, each comprising a director, scriptwriter, singer, and production company, making their debut at the event.

Each Tier 1 team receives up to HK$130,000 to produce a 4 to 8-minute original microfilm with their matched singer.
