So far this year in Cox's Bazar, UNHCR and its partners have intervened in more than 170 cases of missing persons, abductions and kidnappings in the refugee settlements, however the real number is likely far higher. Read about Sara's story here: https://t.co/5pr50Hp0u6

Today marks the launch of the 2019 #16Days Campaign to end gender-based violence. In Cox's Bazar, men play an important role in curbing sexual violence. “Our role in this was to show how to change bystanders into change makers.” https://t.co/0TU8Ec7GPH

Great to see a resettled Rohingya youth receiving a "Youth Award" by the Gardaí in my hometown Kilkenny! Amazing integration efforts have yielded wonderful results & show what can be achieved. @RohingyaIrl @Refugees https://t.co/RPEIPYJLYf

Powerful new documentary film depicts the struggle of one #Rohingya refugee helping to reunite separated kids & parents. Shot in 2017 by @grainmedia w UNHCR support, this film gives a glimpse of the struggles and hardship endured by many. @NatGeo https://t.co/p23aDaoc9a https://t.co/6dm6Tbfu4w

Refugee volunteers raising one flag across the #Rohingya settlements this morning. This is the lowest warning signal of a potential #cyclone threat. Volunteers are mobilized and delivering community messaging. UNHCR & partners are coordinating a potential emergency response https://t.co/uaLXvAqYNu

A great UNHCR initiative in Cox's Bazar that sees Rohingya refugees and local Bangladeshis benefit from free physiotherapy services, side by side. #RefugeeForum https://t.co/o2dQWQGY3d

Having met many of these children who attempted to cross the Mediterranean during my time working in Niger, this is truly heart breaking... #DesperateJourneys https://t.co/N8o6eobj07

An incredible and inspiring woman who did so much in her life to ease the suffering of refugees and displaced people. Also the only female UNHCR High Commissioner. Her legacy during some of the most complex crises will live on. https://t.co/DW57ClbPdf
