Big project in Sudan: Since war erupted 18 months ago, hunger is everywhere. Price of bread doubled just as most lost income. Thanks to USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance, NRC colleagues support hundreds of bakeries in war torn areas, bringing down the bread price so thousands can again eat. 1/2

Today Norwegian Refugee Council was pleased to join an NGO side event on internal displacement at #UNHCR’s ExCom. With the number of internally displaced people growing each year, our message is clear: 📢 Now is the time for action to promote protection & solutions for displaced populations.

UNSC 2664 was a landmark resolution protecting humanitarian aid under UN sanctions. We need to have continued green light for humanitarian work under the 1267 resolution about ISIL & al-Qaida, as 100 million civilians urgently need aid in countries where these groups exist. ⬇️

Good news: UNSC members voted unanimously for a cont’d humanitarian exemption in UN sanctions on ISIL & AQ. Thanks to SwitzerlandUN & U.S. Mission to the UN for leadership. Developments in Syria show us that humanitarians must be able to stay & deliver despite power shifts. bit.ly/41snl3I

On Tuesday, Jan Egeland & Kelly T. Clements signed the #UNHCR-NRC Global Partnership Agreement. Our partnership with UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency is more important than ever at this time of uncertainty. Together, we remain steadfast in our commitment to support people in need.

BREAKING: Cameroon is now the world’s most neglected displacement crisis, according to a new NRC report. Decision makers must recognise that displacement isn’t a distant crisis; it’s a shared responsibility which cannot be ignored. nrc.no/news/2025/june…

🚨 10 crises. Millions neglected. Barely any headlines. Right now, families are fleeing violence in places the world has stopped caring about. When aid gets cut, people die. When we stay silent, we choose indifference. Your voice can break that silence.
