Access to sports can be life-changing for refugees. It builds resilience, restores some normality and brings joy. We're honoured to have received the 'Fair Play for Peace' Award from the European Fair Play Movement for UNHCR’s work in improving refugees’ lives through sport. 🏅

“People know what the world can offer-if they don't have opportunities @ home, they will leave. We would do the same. The only way to manage migration is to invest in these societies.” Jutta Urpilainen Instead of walls, let’s build opportunities 4 people to have fulfilling lives

Rescuing people at risk at sea must be at the ❤️ of all responses through coordinated search and rescue operations + timely and safe disembarkation. Saving lives is not optional. It’s a legal and moral obligation.

We welcome the EU's announcement of additional humanitarian aid for Ukrainians in need, including those forcibly displaced in 🇺🇦 and 🇲🇩. Amid ongoing attacks and a harsh winter ahead, this support will serve as a vital lifeline.

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 they truly want: the chance to return home.

Statelessness is a global issue affecting millions who live invisible lives. But everyone should have a legal identity and the rights that come with it. Everyone has the right to a nationality. Everyone has the right to say #IBelong.

Counting on refugee judges to protect key principles at a time politicians/media push negative rhetorics on migrants: Pushbacks are illegal Safe third country must meet high standards Externalization of 🇪🇺 responsibilities is a no go Courts are often the last line of defence

The power of education to shape lives is huge. But we still see half of the world’s 15 million school-aged refugee children out of school. We must do more to enable them to enroll and access quality education! Read about UNHCR’s new education report 👇🏻 unhcr.org/news/press-rel…

More safe pathways to access safety in the 🇪🇺 must be offered to refugees. Welcoming refugees isn’t just the right thing to do - it’s a win-win situation. Europe has a labour shortage and refugees have the skills and talents to enrich our workforce and communities.

Education is a fundamental human right for everyone, including refugees. Yet nearly half of school-aged refugees worldwide are out of school. We must protect refugees’ right to education. bit.ly/3z7sX7V
