Tuition and other costs. Administrative hurdles. Shortage of qualified teachers. Restrictive national policies. Refugee learners still face many barriers to accessing quality education. We all have a role in protecting their right to learn.

Some had to part with their parents. Some lost loved ones. Some don't even remember their homes. Children who were #ForcedToFlee deserve better than today's #GlobalTrends of conflicts and displacement. 🔗 unhcr.org/global-trends

While progress has been made, gender parity for refugees enrolled in all levels of education remains unachieved. Refugee girls deserve to be in school. #RefugeeEducation

Every day, millions of stateless people face restrictions that many of us can hardly imagine. It’s more than an inconvenience – it's a violation of basic human rights. Everyone has the right to a nationality. Everyone has the right to say #IBelong.

When peace returns, refugees return. There is no refugee crisis. There’s a political crisis – over and over again. We’re calling for #peace so refugees can get what most truly want: the chance to return home. #withrefugees #DayofPeace
