This #WorldRefugeeDay, meet Yousef.🕊️

At 19, he arrived @ZaatariCamp with nothing but the clothes on his back. Today, at 32, he's a father, soon a cybersecurity graduate - and a volunteer at a UNICEF #Makani centre in the camp.

في #اليوم_العالمي_للاجئين، تعرّفوا على يوسف.🕊️

في عمر ال19، وصل إلى مخيم الزعتري للاجئين بلا شيء سوى الثياب التي يرتديها.

أما اليوم، وفي عمر ال32، فهو أب، وعلى وشك التخرج في تخصص الأمن السيبراني، ومتطوع في أحد مراكز مكاني التابعة لليونيسف داخل المخيم.

We want to enhance our strong collaboration with @IFC_org to unlock the enormous potential of the private sector for opportunities for refugees in Jordan, Syria and beyond.
So we went to learn from Zaatari camp residents, together with the IFC Vice President, Elena Bourganskaia.

[UNHCR Jordan @UNHCRJordan]

At UNHCR #Jordan, partnerships are shaped by insights from the field. In @ZaatariCamp yesterday, @IFC_org VP Elena Bourganskaia met with @Refugees to better understand their challenges & aspirations, exploring ways to further build on the strong UNHCR–IFC partnership.
