Great news from Kenya this week, where the Government has announced it will resolve statelessness for the Pemba people and will recognize them as Kenyan citizens! This is the latest significant development in the global effort to end statelessness #IBelong https://t.co/7zKeMDWc65

We are so pleased that Colombia, France, Japan, Jordan, Niger and Uganda will co-convene the  #GlobalRefugeeForum, which will be hosted by Switzerland and UNHCR next December. Together, we have much to do over the next 12 months in mobilizing more global support for refugees!

This is why it is imperative for governments and humanitarian actors to ensure that these specific challenges are taken into account, that aid and services are accessible and inclusive, and that the meaningful participation of people with disabilities is supported #IDPD2022

Millions of people with disabilities are estimated to be forcibly displaced by persecution, violence and human rights violations. Many face challenges and risks from the moment of flight, and even on reaching safety, services, aid and protection may be inaccessible. https://t.co/3O0Zgp8Ihf
