100M people have now been forcibly displaced. This number is hard to wrap my mind around, but it represents 100M resilient individuals who deserve safety and compassion. We cannot forget the people behind these numbers. Now more than ever, we need to uplift #refugeevoices.

This #WorldRefugeeDay, I’m sharing something that makes me feel safe to emphasize the importance of #SafetyForAll. My house keys are a tangible reminder for me of what so many refugees and persons forced to flee hold most dear – security, shelter, and safety.

#ICYMI Check out USA for UNHCR’s featured #WorldRefugeeDay story about Haya and Ghena. These amazing young ladies were born refugees after their family fled Iraq. Now in the U.S., they’re learning about their family’s history & advocating for everyone’s right to seek safety.

I'm honored to have been part of today's important discussion and always proud of the amazing things we are able to accomplish in partnership with Sesame Workshop! 👏

For the past 2 years, #COVID19 travel restrictions & border closures have impeded families seeking safety. But as Filippo Grandi put it, “COVID-19 cannot be an excuse to ignore the law and refugee rights.” That’s why I’m calling for an end to #Title42! unrefugees.org/news/whoever-w…

"It is non-negotiable; seeking safety is a human right.” #COVID1 restrictions, such as #Title42, have posed major obstacles for families seeking safety. Read as USA for UNHCR Executive Director & CEO Anne-Marie Grey urgently calls for the end of COVID-19 era restrictions:

“There is always light. If only we’re brave enough to see it. If only we’re brave enough to be it.” - Amanda Gorman This #WorldHumanitarianDay, thank you to all the humanitarian aid workers who bring light, peace and hope to displaced people around the world.

Severe monsoon rains in #Pakistan have caused devastating damage, impacting 30M+ people across the country. Send help now. Support UNHCR in delivering lifesaving aid to the more than 500,000 people in Pakistan who have been displaced by the heavy rains and floods.

Komaliza and Serafina both own vegetable stands in the Kalobeyei refugee settlement, thanks to support from UNHCR. By supporting refugee entrepreneurship, UNHCR helps refugees gain independence, rebuild their lives and improve their communities!

All refugees have the #RightToLearn. Yet, nearly half of all school-aged refugee children are not in school. 📚 The world must ensure access to inclusive education for everyone.

My heart goes out to the families affected by the devastating flooding in Pakistan. Host and refugee families alike need our compassion, and we cannot forget about them in their time of need. unrefugees.org/news/unhcr-rus…

The best solutions to challenges facing refugee communities come from refugees themselves, and Nery Santaella’s work with Voices of Venezuela is proof of that. I am honored to be part of this celebration of her lifesaving work. Congratulations, Nery!
