Collective solidarity & innovative partnerships highlight my visit to KSA 🇸🇦 in these times of enormous human need & funding shortfalls. Important mtgs w/ Foreign Ministry 🇸🇦 KSrelief الصندوق السعودي للتنمية & private sector & govt partners at #RIHF. Crucial engagement with high stakes.


Thanks Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office for hosting us. Long-standing support by the 🇬🇧 to UNHCR, forcibly displaced and host communities allows swift action. As needs grow, we look forward to continuing our work to ensure safety + solutions for those impacted by war and conflict.





When we turn to our closest allies, Japan is there, standing firm in supporting us to respond to refugee needs worldwide. Today’s exchange with Mr. AKAHORI Takeshi MOFA of Japan reaffirmed Japan's commitment to humanitarian action & to UNHCR’s role in these collective efforts.🙏🏼








May you rest in peace, Pope Francis. You stood up and spoke out — relentlessly — for the poor, the persecuted, the victims of war, the refugees, the migrants. May you continue to give us faith and courage in this brutal world. Pope Francis



Deeply grateful for the meaningful dialogue with MOFA of Japan and our trusted partnership with JICA - Japan International Cooperation Agency. 🇯🇵 At a time of urgent global needs, Japan’s leadership to the humanitarian-development-peace nexus is more important than ever. Thank you for standing #WithRefugees.
