I’m in Kiryandongo settlement and it’s heartbreaking with 20,000 Sudanese refugees who have arrived since last year. I’m even seeing old UNHCR colleagues who I used to work with in Sudan being registered. Let’s help them together!
Lack of resources to provide much needed food to refugees fleeing Sudan is adding to the protection challenges faced once they reach safety. @WFPafrica is a key partner in the Sudan Refugee Response & they -along with other partners -need critical funding. Don't forget #Sudan.

We are deeply alarmed by deteriorating conditions of Eritrean refugees in Tigray, Ethiopia.
Refugees are struggling to get food, medicine and clean water. We urgently need to relocate them to provide life-saving assistance, or more refugees may die.

@qrsupport What is your average response time? It's been nearly 24 hours and no response. Your website has frustratingly not allowed login for over a month. Awaiting your response!
On 24 December two @save_children staff members were murdered in Myanmar with other civilians.
On 28 December UNHCR confirmed that a staff member was killed in Ethiopia.
As many worldwide pause for holidays, these are tragic reminders that wars and violence never stop killing.
I recently met with refugees & displaced Ethiopians in the Tigray and Amhara regions. They spoke of suffering and a deep desire for normalcy to return. @UNHCREthiopia and partners are providing some services, under challenging conditions. But lasting solutions are needed most.
#Ethiopia to send #COVID19 test results via text message https://t.co/yLrH2EOzcP People who test for the virus will receive the result on their phone within three hours, according to the Ethiopian Public Health Institute @EPHIEthiopia
@Tsionawit_ I've noticed that almost everything that I find beautiful in ET culture, is what needs to be reduced to fight C19. It is an enormous challenge. Until people are personally impacted, it doesn't seem real to many.
An important conversation that needs to take place in international schools, which tend to be culturally White (and led by mostly White teachers) even when there are many BIPOC students.
A call to all leading int'l school organisations and leaders to begin and continue anti-racist work within schools. Start with listening to the stories of alumni and students and their lived experience on racism within your school. @EARCOSORG@the_ptc1@CISEducation@nesachat
