‘It is not too late to try and save countless millions more from the scourge of war.’ We need cacophony to end & peace to prevail. From Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan to DR Congo and Myanmar, it's not too late. @filippograndi at UN Security Council yesterday.

In Tokyo - reminded again of increasing strength of corporates/individuals to help us bring relief to people forced to flee around the 🌍, bringing their expertise to help find solutions to displacement & further work on education, climate, health & jobs. Good business to do good

11 months later, the border town of Adre 🇹🇩 is again overwhelmed by more than 180,000 refugees, most with no belongings. And more refugees arrive daily. Chad RRRP is only funded at 6%! Not enough funds to help “sur place” nor to open new sites. A catastrophy at our doorsteps.

I had the privilege today to meet strong advocates for efforts to eradicate #statelessness - there is no way we will make progress alone and the rights advocacy of these stateless-led organizations and others will help the new Global Alliance get there. 🙏🏼

Today is the ‘official’ day we in the @UN recognize LGBTIQ+ rights will always be fundamental human rights. No matter who you are, how you identify, know that we at UNHCR stand with you and will always fight for your protection. This is a promise that goes beyond #IDAHOBIT .

The @IDMC_Geneva ‘s #GRID2024 is tragically familiar for internally displaced people. More conflicts. More climate disasters. More IDPs than at any point in history. We really need more peace and preventative #ClimateAction .

Today @refugees launched its first Sexual Misconduct policy, putting teeth behind our work to eradicate Sexual Exploitation Abuse & Harassment from #UNHCR & the wider humanitarian response. There is no question we have made progress & no question we have much more to do. #PSEAH

Helpful discussion with @Refugees Deputy High Commissioner @KellyTClements . @StatePRM values UNHCR’s partnership globally, including in Chad, where we both recently visited individuals fleeing the Sudan crisis. Cooperation is essential as we face unprecedented humanitarian needs.

We have only one 🌍 and it is for all of us. From Bangladesh through Kenya to Colombia, refugees everywhere are working to preserve the environment. On #EarthDay and every day, UNHCR works to make our operations more sustainable and ease the impact of displacement on hosts.

‘Peace must prevail.’ If you watch/read one story about the impact of Sudan’s 12 month war on its people, this piece from @TIME should be it.

8.5 million people have been displaced since the start of Sudan's Civil War. Filippo Grandi, the UN High Commissioner of Refugees, reflects on what one year of war has done to Sudan. "Peace has to prevail," Grandi says.
