What does “urgent” look like on the ground? At UNHCR, the needs and responses are tailored to each context, but always guided by one question: what must be done first. This is how we cut through complexity to act faster. Global Humanitarian Overview: humanitarianaction.info

In a world of record displacement and dwindling aid, we must decide: turn our backs or show up. Let’s choose empathy over apathy. Solidarity over silence. Let’s build a world where welcoming refugees is the norm. #WorldRefugeeDay

My boss is on his way to Syria where we at UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency are seeing some rays of hope for the millions of refugees who have been displaced for over a decade. The returnees are ready to rebuild not only their houses but their country. #WorldRefugeeDay2025

I feel a mix of horror, anger and a need for action - how can this be? À child raped every 30 min. This type of violence is simply grotesque. Where is humanity?

This #WorldRefugeeDay, let’s shift the narrative. Refugees aren’t just defined by what they’ve lost but by what they bring: skills, ideas, new perspectives. True solidarity means opportunity, inclusion and shared responsibility. Let’s build a world where everyone belongs.

I wrapped up my visit to Syria. I found many challenges but also a fragile hope. To sustain it, we urgently need: Emergency aid to support people returning to destroyed homes and lives. Long-term investments to help rebuild a country emerging from a long war. Both are vital.

New Ipsos survey shows strong global support for the right to seek asylum: 67% across 29 countries. But there's a growing gap between what people believe and what they do. We must turn compassion into action. unh.cr/68526cf60

A real pleasure to meet with MFA Austria in Geneva for our third bilateral consultations. We discussed shared priorities — protect displaced people in Ukraine, Syria, Sudan, and especially supporting those in underfunded, overlooked crises. Herzlichen Dank, Österreich 🇦🇹!

In 2024, despite global challenges, we protected and assisted over 36 million people—thanks to donor support and host countries. Our Global Report shows what was achieved and what’s at stake. 🔗 unhcr.org/publications/g…

Alarming gap: Afghan returnees surge as funding falls dangerously short. Without urgent investment, hard-won progress will collapse—risking regional instability. We call for immediate action. #UNinAfghanistan More details here: tinyurl.com/t8x4ax5c

In Sevilla for the 4th Finance for Development Conference. Refugees are key contributors to sustainable development. As humanitarian funding declines, bridging humanitarian and development efforts is more urgent than ever. #FFD4Sevilla

Mass returns are worsening an already dire crisis in Afghanistan. Families are coming back to a country they barely recognize with no shelter, no resources and no support. They need urgent help: unh.cr/686254630

2024 proved again: flexible funding isn’t just a budget concept — it’s a lifeline. It kept protection running, enabled fast emergency response and reached millions of displaced people when headlines moved on. We must protect this flexibility. 🔗 unhcr.org/media/flexible…
