Many Libyans remain displaced. Good that we were able to reach some of them in the south of the country, and bring much needed help. https://t.co/gJKUWPsafR

20 years ago “guiding principles” to address internal displacement were adopted. Today more than 40 million are displaced in their own countries because of harsh conflicts and closed borders. Those principles are more urgent than ever. https://t.co/XLf9fxzLV3

When Czechoslovakia was occupied by the Soviets, Milos Forman became a refugee in the US, and one of the world's best film directors. Asylum saves lives. It also provides opportunities for great talent to flourish. RIP https://t.co/Qn6yUCryzp

All should listen to Secretary-General @antonioguterres’ appeal for restraint. Even when diplomacy appears wishful thinking, it remains the only way to truly end war. https://t.co/VVQgVOhNar

Congolese refugee women in Musasa, Burundi, refuse to depend on aid alone, and start small businesses thanks to a microfinance project run by @theIRC. https://t.co/n9umQeoPKO

Conflicts in Africa's Great Lakes region have forced millions to flee. Time for regional leaders to work together to find just and durable solutions to displacement, with (more) international support. https://t.co/2UT2Dux9j4

“I have learned much from my refugee experience”: Africa has in President @PaulKagame a visionary leader who understands the importance of innovative solutions to forced displacement. Grateful for an inspiring discussion with him+FM @LMushikiwabo. https://t.co/kPIVnR56rQ
