1 million refugees in one week. That’s how many people have been forced to flee into neighbouring countries from Ukraine. If you do just one thing today, please donate to UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency: unh.cr/621dfc8712f

Very happy to inaugurate the new alliance between UNHCR and FC Barcelona and Barça Foundation: because many good words are associated with football in refugee situations: inclusion, health, motivation, hope… Thank you, President Joan Laporta Estruch🎗, for your commitment and support!

I am in Dadaab this week as part of my ongoing familiarisation in Kenya. Resources continue to be needed to realise solutions for the protracted situations of the refugee women, men, boys and girls who we had the pleasure of meeting today.

At every step of the education cycle, the enrollment rates for refugees lag behind their peers.  Inclusive education means providing barrier-free access to quality education for all, including refugees. bit.ly/3xiyh3W

Lives torn apart. Families left behind. That’s what’s coming if UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency goes without the $700 million they need before the end of the year to support the world’s most vulnerable displaced people. Here’s how you can help: unh.cr/635266244 #WithRefugees

#COP27 has taken an important step towards justice. I welcome the decision to establish a loss and damage fund and to operationalize it in the coming period. Clearly this will not be enough, but it is a much-needed political signal to rebuild broken trust.

It’s been a year since the senseless war in Ukraine began. It breaks my heart! People who were forced to flee their homes still need our support. Please donate to UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency if you can: unh.cr/63f4a9ba5

On #WorldRefugeeDay we have reached unfortunately also a very sad target — more than 500,000 people have now fled the fighting in Sudan to neighbouring countries. Half a million refugees. Guns must fall silent if we want this exodus to stop.

We wish all the best to Sir Mo Farah as he retires after a stellar lifetime run from adversity to triumph. Every human being deserves the opportunity to succeed, and give back.
