In Nyabiheke refugee camp and beyond, refugees like Bernard are working hard to build a better future. On this #WorkersDay, let’s expand opportunities so more refugees can earn a living and support their families.

Healthcare is a basic right – not a luxury. But funding cuts are putting essential services at risk, from maternal care to chronic illness treatment. Urgent support is needed to keep health facilities running & medicines available for refugees in Rwanda.

Even in displacement, everyone deserves moments of joy. Grateful to Spanish circus artists who are bringing laughter & play to refugees of all ages in camps across Rwanda this week, bringing to life the healing power of fun.

Today, UNHCR Rwanda staff, alongside the families of our former colleagues killed during the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, gathered at Nyanza-Kicukiro Genocide Memorial to honor their memory and stand in solidarity with the people of Rwanda for #Kwibuka31.

When insecurity forced Yvonne to flee her village in the DRC, she didn’t know where the road would lead – only that she had to protect her child. This #MothersDay, we honor the courage of mothers like her who risk everything so their children can have hope.

From fleeing conflict in Sudan to Rwanda via Libya, Samir* has finally found safety. The 6-year-old was evacuated to Rwanda last month with his family under the Emergency Transit Mechanism (ETM). At the ETM in Gashora, he plays, smiles & heals. EU🇪🇺support makes this possible.

A quiet but powerful reminder by this refugee child in Mugombwa camp that responsibility isn’t defined by age—it’s shaped by mindset. If many could adopt the same sense of care and commitment, we could make a real difference in improving the lives of displaced populations.
