One week to go until 20 June, #WorldRefugeeDay! The right to seek safety was made for times like these. Help keep the promise of safety alive. Stand with refugees. Until everyone is safe, we show up. Until everyone is safe, the work is not done.

📌 Recommended read on the Action Agenda on Internal Displacement. More emphasis needed on: 👉Government leadership 👉Effective participation of internally displaced people 👉Financing better aligned with solutions strategies 👉Data thoroughly integrated into national systems
Governments are increasingly leading efforts to help displaced people move toward solutions. The latest Global Stock-Take shows what is working and what must happen next: 🆕 shorturl.at/DhF3m

New EU rules on return need to respect international and EU human rights standards. Creating offshore return hubs with limited safeguards, expanded use of detention - including of children, and weakened protections that risk refoulement, all warrant careful reconsideration. Reforms must genuinely reflect the EU's commitment to fair, sustainable and human rights-based migration governance - @volker_turk

I sat down with Ali Hamadi—fellow Iraqi, fellow refugee—now set to represent Iraq at its first World Cup in 40 years. When he fled as a child, this moment would have felt unimaginable. Life can take us farther than we ever expect—and sometimes brings our stories full circle.

I welcome the announcement by UN SG @antonioguterres to appoint Tressa Rae Finerty as Deputy High Commissioner, Antón Leis García as Assistant High Commissioner for Operations, and Edem Wosornu as Assistant High Commissioner for Protection, to join me in leading @Refugees. People forced to flee need protection, peace and solutions. I look forward to working with these outstanding leaders to deliver on UNHCR mandate—and to advance real, lasting change worldwide.

Some heroes wear capes. Others devote their lives to standing with people forced to flee. 💙 The #NansenAward honours those making an extraordinary difference for refugees, displaced and stateless people. Nominate an unsung hero: bit.ly/42TXFvP

The crisis in Mozambique is not over. The conflict started in 2017, but people continue to be displaced, often more than once. They need support to rebuild their lives. If you’re able, please help with a donation: bit.ly/3J4RK1d

📊 Record levels of internal displacement demand urgent attention. ➡️ To States around the world, act now: support political solutions to prevent conflict & develop better policies that enable displaced and host communities to move forward with their lives.
Conflict and violence triggered a record number of internal displacements in 2025. At the same time, millions of people remain displaced within their own countries, many unable to return home or rebuild their lives.

Three months on, the conflict in 🇱🇧 continues. For many, displacement has become a cycle. Fear grows. Needs grow. Uncertainty persists. The violence must stop. Civilians must be protected. This must end.

Above all, housing is a human right. For millions of internally displaced persons (#IDPs), it is the foundation of recovery & a better future. As I prepare my next report on IDPs and reconstruction after mass devastation, it was good to exchange ideas & experiences at #WUF13.
We shape our buildings; thereafter, they shape us. But what happens when the system is broken? When finance ignores informal incomes? WUF13 has made it clear: housing is not secondary. It is the foundation of peace, health, and opportunity. We can’t just build walls.

This is unacceptable. We strongly condemn the Russian attack on Dnipro, Ukraine, that claimed at least two civilian lives, injured more and hit a UNHCR-contracted warehouse filled with life-saving humanitarian aid. Humanitarians are #NotATarget. These attacks must stop.

UN independent experts alarmed by complicity of online pornographic platforms and other intermediaries in sexual exploitation of women & girls. “A red line must be drawn,” the experts said. buff.ly/BGqmEX3 @UN_SPExperts
