They still are – and we’re still there, protecting people forced to flee and supporting them as they build a new future
Today, we work in both new and protracted crises across more than 30 countries, where we provide camp management, food assistance, clean water, shelter, legal aid, and education. We stand up for people forced to flee

When we witness injustices, we alert the world
We promote and defend displaced people's rights and dignity in local communities, with national governments and in the international arena
