#1 ALL IN Top moment of AFD 2025? The theme itself. Africa holds 48M displaced people. Refugee leaders spoke. Private sector listened, learned, and began to respond. A continental stand. Grounded in action. This is ALL IN. #AFD2025 #AllIn #WithRefugees

🪰 Insect farming: weird, wild and… a game-changer? Protein from insects feeds animals, nourishes crops & powers agri-business. It's smart, sustainable and it’s already changing lives. With private sector support, small ideas like this can scale and transform futures.

What do refugees need more than anything? Peace so they can return home. In the absence of peace, they need opportunities to be active members of the communities that have welcomed them, whether through work, school, sports or other activities. #WithRefugees

📚 “I love maths because I love calculations.” 🩺 “I want to be a surgical doctor." 📖 “I study history to fix the mistakes of the past.” Refugee youth are already dreaming big, and they deserve the same opportunities to succeed. How will you support them? #WIthRefugees

🎥 In April 2025, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency & Mastercard Foundation launched a multi-year partnership to support displaced youth across Africa. This week in Nairobi, we came together to co-create the path forward. We asked: What does this partnership mean to you? What did this workshop feel like?

Heartbreaking to see the immense destruction in #Khartoum today, a city that has generously welcomed thousands of refugees. Huge work ahead to rebuild but authorities & partners are doing their very best to support. Our commitment to stay & support as much as we can stands.
