Nira fled war-torn Sudan and found safety in Kenya. The meaning of safety is different for each of us. But the right to seek it belongs to all of us.

Burundi has opened its doors to tens of thousands of Congolese refugees. But resources are stretched so thin many are being forced to make a choice: safety or survival. They need urgent support now. Please donate if you can: unh.cr/65cf83830

Home is close, but not yet within reach. Many displaced Lebanese families are moving closer to their towns and villages. Return, for them, is as much a journey as displacement has been. Nearly 500,000 people remain displaced and need support to rebuild their lives.

He grew up in a refugee camp in Tanzania after his family fled the DR Congo. Today he's an American playing for @FCDallas. Every refugee has a story. Bernard Kamungo's shows what's possible when given the chance. We are proud to have him on @Refugees Gamechanging Team.
