An inspiring visit to @autodesk and great discussion with Joe Speicher and the @AutodeskFdn team on creating software that can help UNHCR better deliver for refugees. For me personally, an exciting journey of discovery into the humanitarian potential of artificial intelligence. https://t.co/smAqE4I0KT

Welcoming communities are vital to refugees.     In the Bay Area I met families rebuilding their lives and resettlement agencies helping them, including in the @CityofSanJose (2nd US city supporting the Global Compact on Refugees). @SamLiccardo @RESCUEorg @jfcsorg @JFCSEastBay https://t.co/gvgm5ZlXdW

Thanks @dkhos for hosting me at Uber HQ to talk about our joint efforts to help refugees. Support from partners like @Uber is needed to help displaced families stay warm during the harsh Ukrainian winter. We look forward to expanding our partnership to other regions as well! https://t.co/QCAxp009lq

Thank you @salesforce for hosting us at your San Francisco headquarters: a great opportunity to appreciate your support to UNHCR and refugees, to share messages with your employees and customers, and to discuss with @Rob_M_Acker and @SalesforceOrg how to expand our partnership! https://t.co/tht1S2rx2a

An exciting morning spent @google in Silicon Valley — as technology shapes our future, we discussed how it can also be used to ensure that refugees are included. A partnership with much potential: thanks @sundarpichai, @Kent_Walker and team for your friendship and commitment! https://t.co/Hngf1cshSr

The situation in #Haiti is getting worse: violence and abuses are escalating; a humanitarian crisis is growing. Today I appealed to all States not to forcibly return Haitians to their country and to give them access to asylum procedures if requested. https://t.co/j0eRmkBQD9

I told the Security Council today that too many of the 103 million refugees and displaced people are “not only fading from media attention but are being failed by global inaction.” My full statement:👇🏻 https://t.co/29t7ymTzPa

Conflicts and climate change are forcing people from their homes, amidst a cost of living crisis most devastating for the poorest. Against this backdrop, I addressed the #UNGA Third Committee. We need solutions to help those forced to flee. UNHCR stands ready to help find them. https://t.co/MHcJX856we

Grateful to @UN_PGA Csaba Kőrösi for a good discussion on the importance of keeping all humanitarian and refugee crises in focus at the @UN General Assembly and in the international debate. We share the view that pursuing solutions to forced displacement is a key priority. https://t.co/oEKM09P8GT

Solidarity with the families of those killed and injured in the horrible attack in Mogadishu, to the people of Somalia and to President @HassanSMohamud. This cowardly act proves that more support to Somalia is needed as it strives to end violence and fight a devastating drought.
