🩰 Entre pasos de marinera, Michelle encontró su lugar en el #Perú.

Adalina extraña su país.
Tuvo que dejarlo todo, cruzando fronteras hasta llegar a Tacna.
Pasó el tiempo, pero no olvidó sus raíces.
Ahora guarda su mayor tesoro, sus fotos antiguas, en una caja de cartón. La abre de vez en cuando para revivir aquella vida en la que fue feliz.
Con solo 8 meses👶🏽, Deivid cruzó varios países en brazos de su mamá, buscando un lugar seguro.
Hoy, con 5 años, juega y sonríe 😊 en Lima, donde su familia construye una nueva vida. 💙

A few months ago, I had the chance to film this video with refugee students in Egypt.
I was inspired by the powerful stories of Ethar🇸🇩, Abdala🇸🇴 and Mohamed🇸🇾. Despite being forced to flee their homes, they persevered, graduated, and now have bright futures ahead.
#WithRefugees
In 2024, 6 refugee students from 🇸🇩🇸🇾🇸🇴 graduated from the German Hotel School @SawirisFSD
As they embark on their careers in hospitality, 29 more are on their educational journey. Their stories are a testament to how education can transform lives

I’m at #WUF12, where policymakers, researchers, and grassroots activists are gathering to reimagine the cities of the future. Despite the recent discouraging news, it's vital to remember: the power to improve our communities and create a better world remains firmly in our hands.

Under Cairo's scorching sun, these Sudanese women showcase their creations, symbolizing the perseverance of those forced to flee.
Facing numerous dangers, over half a million Sudanese have crossed into Egypt seeking safety. We should all support them.
In 10 years, displaced people increased from 9 to 25 million in the Horn of Africa. We provide humanitarian aid, but we must also focus on development since the start of every crisis. Shifting from dependency to self-reliance is key.
@RaoufMazou (@Refugees) in the @AswanForum.
A few days ago, Ethar graduated, earning a diploma that allows her to apply for jobs in #Egypt. She is one of thousands of Sudanese refugee students eager to contribute their skills to the country that welcomed them.
