📍Hasbaya, South Lebanon: We joined a UN convoy delivering core relief items to support 2,000+ families across four municipalities.
With winter nearing, the needs of displaced people and host communities, heavily impacted by Israeli airstrikes, are rising fast.
Relentless Israeli airstrikes have forced thousands of families in Lebanon to flee their homes, leaving them without shelter, food or necessities.
UNHCR is on the ground, responding to the escalating conflict, but the needs grow more urgent every day.
Funds to support @UNRWA are critical — stopping its crucial lifeline for people in #Gaza will have grave consequences in terms of human suffering and unmanageable further displacement. I join other humanitarian leaders in appealing for the resumption of this vital funding 👇🏻
“We would like others to come forward and pledge more support. Refugees need support.”
🎙️@AkAlolama, CEO of @MBRInitiatives, speaks to Hala Haj Taleb, UNHCR Journalism Programme mentee, about sustainable solutions for refugees and host communities and why the global business community must pledge more support and stand #WithRefugees.
ما التحديات التي تواجه المفوضية في ظل أوضاع النزوح؟ كيف يؤثر تغير المناخ على أزمة اللاجئين؟ وما دور الحكومات والقطاع الخاص في دعم الجهود الإنسانية؟
من المحاور التي تحدثت عنها مديرة إدارة العلاقات الخارجية دومينيك هايد.

Women bear the brunt of the climate crisis and conflicts.
Investing in women's empowerment must be in turn at the centre of humanitarian aid.
This was at the heart of our discussion with Sheikha Fatima Fund for Women Refugees.
Thanks for such a vital exchange! #COP28
المستشار الخاص المعني بالعمل المناخي لدى مفوضية الأمم المتحدة السامية لشؤون اللاجئين "UNHCR" لـ CNBC عربية:
- أكثر من يتعرض لخطر التغير المناخي في العالم هم اللاجئين
- تقديم الخيام للاجئين لن يكون حلاً لأزمة المناخ ويجب تقديم حلولاً واقعية

I hope this program inspires many others from the private sector. Thank you Mr. khalaf Al Habtoor’s @khalafAlHabtoor for helping this brilliant group of Afghan women in pursuing their higher education. I join you in wishing these young students a bright future.
I am at #COP28 in #Dubai this week with a message.
The climate crisis impacts all of us, but not equally.
Millions of refugees, internally displaced people, and their hosts are living on the frontlines of our changing world.
We need more and better #ClimateAction .
In Afghanistan last year, I met Amina. Her dream was to become a doctor.
Yesterday in Dubai, I met young Afghan women bringing their dreams to life thanks to the @alhabtoorgroup@uniofdubai
We must keep #AimingHigher for Amina and all refugee girls to pursue their education.
So proud of this innovative financing partnership with the @isdb_group, which builds on the strong culture of giving in Islam.
This new endowment fund will help refugees for decades to come.
