As a 12-year-old in the mid-1970s, Alphonse was forced to flee his home in Rwanda.

A tragedy is unfolding before our eyes in Sudan.
The war continues to force millions of people to flee their homes.
Together with our partners, here's how we’re responding to what is now one of the world’s largest and most challenging humanitarian and displacement crises.
🌧️ Heavy rains have caused flooding and devastation for many in Nairobi and surrounding areas.
Today UNHCR supported flood-affected people, alongside @GovtOfKenya and @UnKenya, with blankets, mats, jerrycans and mosquito nets.
1 man lost his life today, 4 people reported missing, 25 rescued after a boat capsized off Samos. Rescue efforts continue.
Another tragic reminder of the risky journeys people continue to embark on in search of safety. We stand ready to support survivors.

Increasing insecurity and restrictions in refugee camps in Bangladesh are driving growing numbers of stateless Rohingya refugees to board smugglers’ boats.
In search of safety and freedom, they risk their lives on dangerous sea routes to Indonesia. bit.ly/3Uz5xzW
If a political solution to the crisis in Sudan is not found, the fighting and displacement will continue, and further destabilize the entire region.
We call for an immediate cessation of hostilities, and stronger efforts to resolve the crisis.

Meet Victoria and her furry friend Skya 🐶
With her brother and mother, she stayed in a collective site for people displaced by the brutal war in Ukraine.
When their mother died, @UNHCRUkraine & @R2Protection supported Victoria's great-grandmother to become the legal guardian.
Girls can do anything, all they need is an opportunity. 👩🏿⚖️👩🏿⚕️👩🏿🔬👩🏿💻👷🏿♀️
These young refugee women in Kenya are learning to code with @i_amthecode & they have clear goals for the future.
We’re proud to support their dreams!
