We’ve all seen the news. From the Rwanda Bill to the rise of the nationalist parties in the latest European elections, there is an undeniably growing wave of anti-refugee sentiment sweeping across Europe.
At the same time, the United Nations projects that 20% more refugees will need resettlement support this year compared to 2023. It is more important than ever to stand in solidarity today with those who have been forcibly displaced from their homes.
You too could be a "Refugee"
A refugee is someone who has been forced to flee their home due to conflict, persecution, or disaster. Being a refugee is not a choice or something that can only happen to others.
Any one of us could become a refugee; we are one natural disaster, one national crisis or one act of war away from this harshest reality.
In this hour of heartbreaking need, our shared humanity calls upon us to take action for refugees.
A Rapidly Growing Need Amid Shrinking Resources
While the UN projects that 20% more refugees will need support this year, humanitarian organisations are struggling to get support where it is needed most due to a lack of funding and a shortage of volunteers.
