Today is #WorldRefugeeDay.

I am spending it in Syria with some of the 600,000 people who have returned from neighbouring countries after 14 years of conflict.

Syria today is where returning Syrians — given security, opportunities and support — can finally stop being refugees.

At a time of record displacement and shrinking support, we always choose solidarity over silence.

This #WorldRefugeeDay, we honour refugees not just with our words, but with action, empathy and unwavering support.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

This #WorldRefugeeDay, ask yourself:
What kind of world do you want to live in?
A world that turns away? Or a world that shows up?
Let’s choose solidarity.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

Hey, are you still with us?

In the face of ongoing wars, humanitarian crises and displacement, the world must not look away.

Choose empathy over apathy. Choose solidarity with refugees.

The looting of UNHCR warehouse in Wad Madani #Al Jazeera is yet another humanitarian loss & disaster! The $millions worth of supplies perished as a result of the war & looting is uncountable! This should not continue! A return to peace in 🇸🇩

@VickieRemoe Would you be willing to sell a portion of the land ?

[Tayiba Hassen Kayo @TeybaHassen]

The IGAD region shelters 4.5 m refugees,vulnerable groups, including women & children. That's why we firmly advocate for durable soln tailored @gender equality & GBV response. Hence, intl support to PoCs should shift to humanitarian-devt-peace nexus.
