I had a great start to my visit to #Ethiopia at a refugee centre run by JRS International in Addis Ababa — an excellent example of how cooperation between the Ethiopian government, UNHCR and its NGO partners can open up huge opportunities for refugees and those hosting them.

Through nearly 10 years in my current job I have visited Ethiopia every year, including in times of war, pandemics, natural disasters. I assured President Taye Atske Selassie of UNHCR’s continued commitment to support Ethiopia — one the largest, most generous refugee hosting countries.
