From escalating conflicts to worsening disasters, millions are being forced to leave their homes. It’s time to tackle the root causes driving global displacement worldwide. IOM is there to support communities in need and to help them rebuild their lives.

In times of conflict, access to basic services such as shelter, healthcare, water and food is essential to saving lives. IOM works with partners to deliver aid to vulnerable communities during times of crisis helping them rebuild and return home when it is safe to do so.

Visiting the site of Jesus’s baptism at the River Jordan is a powerful reminder that His journey -- born in a stable, fleeing his homeland, walking among the marginalized -- calls us to compassion and dignity for all who are displaced today.

The ongoing violence in Goma, #DRC, has displaced hundreds of thousands of people, forcing them to flee. OIM RDC is ready to respond. But increased humanitarian funding is desperately needed to save lives and meet vast needs.

Cancer touches every family I've ever known, including mine. In every case, it's a personal battle, but it's also one we can fight together. #WorldCancerDay

I just visited #Gaza — witnessed devastation, shattered lives, and mass destruction like never seen before. People urgently need shelter and essential aid. Ceasefire must hold, and humanitarian access must flow without interruption to serve people in desperate need.

Deeply honored to celebrate the life of #PopeFrancis today in Rome. He truly lived as one who ‘came not to be served but to serve,’ always recognizing the dignity and common humanity of migrants, refugees, and all vulnerable people. His example continues to inspire.

Hunger has reached historic levels in Haiti. Despite record levels of violence, World Food Programme has reached 1M+ Haitians every month this year. Parts of the country are on the brink of collapse, with no escape. $53M is urgently needed to sustain our lifesaving operations.

Plastic pollution is contributing to the climate crisis. It’s a threat to nature, livelihoods, and lives. To #BeatPlasticPollution means protecting the environment, securing jobs, and preventing people from being forced to leave their homes. We must act now!
