We are deeply alarmed by escalating conflict in Iran & the Middle East. Reported attacks on schools & the killing of children are devastating. Children must never be targets. We join the UN in calling for immediate ceasefire & full protection of civilians. https://t.co/r3JjGXsuTD

❌ Myth: There's nothing I can do to help refugees.
✅ Reality: You don’t need to do everything, just start by listening, learning & choosing to care.
Helping them starts with empathy, seeing them not as victims, but as people with rights, hopes & power to thrive. #UniteForPeace

❌ Myth: Refugees lack skills and education
✅ Reality: Refuges lack opportunities and support for education and skills

Refugees have the skills — what they lack is the opportunity to use them.

❌ Myth: Refugees don’t want to integrate.
✅ Reality: They’re often left out of the conversation.

It’s not a lack of will, but a lack of opportunity.

No discrimination, no harassment—just a fair chance to learn, to lead, and to make a difference.

Education is a basic need—alongside protection and health. Where the world turned away, let education lead the way.
