A child’s room. A bed. A wall once filled with memories. Now, devastation. For many families in Lebanon, home has been reduced to rubble. Displacement, loss and fear are now part of daily life as attacks continue. UNHCR is on the ground, providing urgent support, but needs are…
Refugee families belong together. Yet, many are kept apart by conflicts, lack of access and other challenges. On #DayOfParents, we call on States to make family reunification procedures for refugees accessible, simple and fast. UNHCR is ready to help.
Most people forced to flee dream of returning home. But for Venezuelans living abroad, that dream comes with conditions. Here is what they told us.
Southern Lebanon is once again under heavy attack. Families are trying to flee as Israel increases evacuation orders for residents across the south to leave their homes. We continue to provide support to people living with the suffering and trauma of repeated displacement. But…
Take it from Louange: No refugee girl or woman should have to hide her period out of fear or shame. No girl or woman should. Without privacy, protection and dignified menstrual hygiene support, stigma can translate into real danger. End the stigma. Period. 🔴 #MHDay
Nyatora didn't have a roadmap. She had something better: a voice and the courage to use it. She co-founded a refugee women-led org in Dadaab and fights GBV on the world stage. This is what it looks like when refugees lead.
Football player @alikalhamadi was born in Iraq and raised in the UK after his family were forced to rebuild their lives. Now he represents Iraq in the 2026 World Cup. Ali is part of UNHCR’s Gamechanging Team, standing alongside other players whose lives were shaped by displaceme…
“I wish we could return home and for the war to end.” Displacement is a familiar sight now for Lebanese families who are stuck in a state of uncertainty. This is Fatima’s story, in her own words.
Nearly one million Rohingya refugees live in overcrowded camps in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh. Each person holds hundreds of questions that often don’t have clear answers.
The war in Sudan disrupted her studies, but not her determination for a better future. Marwa was one year away from graduating in Computer Science when she was forced to flee her home in El Fasher, Sudan. Now, in a refugee camp in Chad, Marwa is back in class. For refugee wome…
This is unacceptable. We strongly condemn the Russian attack on Dnipro, Ukraine, that claimed at least two civilian lives, injured more and hit a UNHCR-contracted warehouse filled with life-saving humanitarian aid. Humanitarians are #NotATarget. These attacks must stop.
🚨Ebola outbreak in eastern DR Congo🚨 Displaced communities are facing this deadly outbreak in densely populated areas with limited access to health care. We need support to improve shelter and hygiene facilities and enable access to essential health services. Please help: unh.cr/65cf83830
What does the Lebanon ceasefire mean if you don't know if you have a home? Displacement is a familiar sight now for Lebanese families who are stuck in a state of uncertainty. The headlines moved on, but the people can't. What they want is safety and a way home.
More than 2 million internally displaced people and returnees live in the Ituri and North Kivu provinces, where humanitarian needs are already severe and access to basic services remains severely constrained.
We are closely monitoring the Ebola outbreak declared in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. We’re concerned about the impact on humanitarian operations and communities where displaced people live.
They once stood as children whose lives were shaped by displacement. Today, they stand together at the highest level of the game. UNHCR’s Gamechanging Team ahead of the 2026 #FIFAWorldCup shows what’s possible when children forced to flee are given safety and opportunity. *Thi…
The crisis in South Sudan is forcing families to flee. Tens of thousands of people have been displaced inside South Sudan and to neighbouring countries. Needs are rising fast. Support is not keeping pace. Please don’t look away. Donate if you can: unh.cr/65fd9de50
This week alone, humanitarians were targeted in attacks twice while delivering much-needed assistance to people in need in Ukraine. In Kherson, a clearly marked UN vehicle delivering aid to civilians was hit by two drone strikes. Earlier this week, another UN aid truck was struc…
No mother should be separated from her child. After years apart, Fatoumata finally reunited with her daughter Aminata. This #MothersDay, we’re thinking of the families still waiting for that moment. Families belong together. ❤️
For people forced to flee, there are thousands of questions with no clear answers. And behind every question is a person trying to protect their family, hold on to dignity and keep going. They shouldn’t have to do it alone. Show your solidarity with all who are displaced.
Despite the announced ceasefire in Lebanon, families are still being forced to flee. Many have tried to return home after weeks or months of displacement. But return is often uncertain, partial and short-lived. Some families arrive to find their homes destroyed. Others face inse…
🎤 Identification documents can open up a world of opportunities for young refugees. - Patrick Kumi, refugee and advocate for refugee youth
A ceasefire is in place in Lebanon. For some, it meant going back after weeks of displacement. Thousands of families made brief journeys south, hoping to find what they left behind. Many returned north again, met with destroyed homes, uncertainty and a reality that still doesn’t…
It’s been over 3 years since the war in Sudan started. This is Guisma’s story from fleeing her home to finding safety in Chad. As a refugee, she has been busy rebuilding her life, combining determination and compassion to make a difference for her family and community.
When your son needs surgery and you can't afford it, fear doesn't care that you crossed a border to survive. Nelson fled Venezuela in 2019. UNHCR and the EU helped his family access urgent medical care and rebuild their lives. Access to healthcare is a human right. Being forced…
This is a real call from an Afghan mother in Iran, read by a translator. In March, UNHCR's refugee helpline received around 1,000 calls a day from Afghans seeking help. Help us answer them. Donate now: unh.cr/vPyniA
