We are thrilled to announce that our founder @ZarlashtH has been selected as one of the 10 Elevate Prize winners for 2024! 🎉
We are excited to work with @ElevatePrize over the next 2 years, so our impact can reach even more refugee and displaced communities across the world 🌍
Massive congrats to my sister @ZarlashtH for winning the 2024 @ElevatePrize!🌟 So proud of you and the amazing work you're doing. This is so well-deserved! Can't wait to see how you continue to make waves❤️
I chair the Charity @AmnaHealing - we work globally to deliver services to refugees that mitigate the impact of trauma and toxic stress.
Our Founder @ZarlashtH today published this long read in the @guardian about her experience living under siege as a child in Afghanistan.
I lived under siege for months as a child. It changed my world and my childhood completely. I remember this as the time when all the time I knew disappeared – when bedtime, schooltime, playtime and dinnertime all vanished.

1/4 GLAN and @alhaq_org are taking legal action to halt weapons sales to Israel over illegal attacks on civilians trapped in #Gaza and ever more aggressive settlement activity in the West Bank:
UK weapons export licences should be suspended when there is a "clear risk" they might be used in violations of international law. @biztradegovuk should explain how they know British arms exported to Israel are not used in illegal attacks & collective punishment in Gaza
Thanks @British_Airways for a shambolic flight to Marrakech. Took my partner off the flight without telling us and although she has now been re-added, we have had to leave without her bag. We don’t have the extra legroom I paid for. Staff are telling me to complain later. Insane
Yasser made the courageous choice to take his family out of #Syria when bombs were falling around them. Their harrowing journey took them through ISIS territory but they made it to the other side. He told his story for Sada and here in the @Independent: https://t.co/ud6uB7e2vk
The story of Yasser and his family is harrowing but sadly not unique. Millions of Syrians have fled their homes seeking safety and a future free of violence. Instead of finding sanctuary, many live in fear of deportation. These deportations must end #WorldRefugeeDay#Sadaproject
What if, in the blink of an eye, you were no longer safe? In August 2021, thousands of Afghans had their lives turned upside down, including Maryam. Follow her story on #Sadaproject: https://t.co/WgSzCI30wi #RefugeeWeek#Afghanistan
The pain of exile never goes away, especially when history repeats itself. Jawed is an Afghan filmmaker who has lost his homeland twice, once as a child and then as as adult. Watch his story: https://t.co/WgSzCI30wi #Sadaproject#Afghanistan#displacement#RefugeeWeek
The experience of refugees goes to the heart of what it means to be human. What is it to feel helpless? How do we keep hope alive?
We are proud to launch Sada: 100 million displaced. Six stories. Please listen + understand: https://t.co/ZR2bU6Youf

President @BarackObama highlighting our work at @RefugeeTraumaUK makes me proud because no matter how bad things get there is always space for empathy and solidarity. Afghans recognise how unjust the war in #Ukraine is and stand in solidarity even as we face our own catastrophe.
@JamesTurner37 I also hate this kind of discrimination against police officers moving backwards. Are they not allowed to do their job? It's directionist.
In our latest #ExposingtheInvisible podcast, @SophiaPickles argues that those benefiting from today’s business-as-usual would not tolerate it if they lived where resources are extracted or produced. Listen here: https://t.co/dYELu0TaUb Funded by: @EU_Commission@MediaEu#OSINT
@Imfeelingmad I haven't managed yet. Drove around for over an hour to various stations. Think I will have to go on foot and fill up a jerrycan when something reopens...
'Our families know how it feels to desperately try to get your family to safety' Our CEO @ZarlashtH and Clinical Lead @GabriellaBethBr wrote about the need for humanitarian corridors in #Afghanistan and why we do the work we do at RTI
