For people forced to flee, COVID-19 became an additional protection and livelihoods crisis, on top of the global public health emergency. The virus has disrupted every aspect of human life and severely worsened existing challenges for the forcibly displaced. https://t.co/CSNazAbmVC

Protecting refugees, especially women & children, is at the heart of UNHCR’s mission in Iran and around the world.
