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.

In the south of #Gaza, Muhannad Hadi and I met families displaced by conflict who are struggling to find shelter. With homes destroyed and basic supplies scarce, the need for urgent humanitarian support is critical. The world must act now to provide safe shelter and relief.

In #Gaza, people are desperate for the ceasefire to hold & a place to be safe. Many have lost everything, yet cling to hope. They need shelter, safety, dignity & control over their future. Thank you Becky Anderson for giving me the opportunity to share what I witnessed on the ground.

Today at least 7 people - among them 1 girl and 1 boy - lost their lives in a shipwreck off #Lesvos island 🇬🇷, marking another tragedy in the Mediterranean Sea. States must work together to prevent further loss of human lives.

For decades, IOM has helped migrants return home safely and with dignity. We are proud to support people with the resources and information they need to make informed decisions that are right for them.

Smugglers are winning, not because people want to take dangerous journeys, but because governments haven’t created enough safe, legal options. Migration will drive future growth. We need systems that meet labor demand and uphold dignity. Thanks for the discussion Brent Goff

Everyone is tired of the war in Ukraine, but fatigue cannot be the reason we abandon those in need. Cutting aid now risks deepening crises and forcing more people to move. Peace must be the goal. Dignity must guide our response. reuters.com/world/everybod…

Survivors of human trafficking are often forced to walk the path to recovery alone – silenced, punished and left behind. On #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, we must break their chains, bring their stories to light, and stand for their freedom. Together, we can #EndHumanTrafficking.

Trafficked. Forced to scam. Then jailed for it. I’ve met young survivors, migrants, even children, treated like criminals instead of victims. This #WorldDayAgainstTrafficking, let’s get it right: Protect survivors. Punish traffickers. #EndHumanTrafficking
