Refugee learners in Dadaab and Kakuma are sitting for this year’s national exams.

From aspiring doctors to teachers, they’ve worked hard for this moment - each exam a step toward the future they dream of.

May every answer bring them closer to the future they imagine.

Born and raised in Dadaab, Shankaron, 18 has spent her life turning barriers into stepping stones.

Now, she’s mentoring others to stay in school.

🎓When refugee girls learn, entire communities grow.

Refugee girls belong in school - and in every space where decisions are made.

This week, we bid farewell to 20 bright refugee students who will soon begin a new chapter in Canada, thanks to scholarships from @WUSC.
Each of them carries not only their dreams but also the hopes of their families and communities. Through complementary pathways, these young women and men now have the chance to pursue higher education, build careers, and contribute meaningfully to society.
Their journeys remind us that when opportunities open, potential shines.
Wishing them courage, success, and joy as they take flight later this month.

Refugees and displaced people with disabilities face severe challenges.

They are often at higher risk of violence, discrimination, exploitation, and abuse. We must protect their rights and ensure fair and equal access to services.

No one should ever be left behind ✊
