Profoundly humbled to be in Kigali during the commemoration of the #RwandaGenocide #Kwibuka24. We must do everything in our power for this never to happen again anywhere in the world. https://t.co/kzJfva4C08

In Rwanda to meet some of the almost 180,000 Burundian and Congolese refugees, and discuss with the government how to improve support, strengthen self-reliance and find solutions. https://t.co/W84sjYf8eb

Burundian refugees in South Kivu, DRC. They go to Congolese schools, are cared for in local health centers and receive land from the community. Congolese hospitality needs much more international support. https://t.co/1LQno5ORul

Refugees in Kinshasa: Emile, from Rwanda, buys wholesale and owns a retail store. Kaja, from South Sudan, grows beans and sells them in the market. Joselyne, from Central African Republic, learned tailoring and makes clothes. Success stories that speaks for themselves. https://t.co/WTE5gLOxHh

Complex population movements impact the Democratic Republic of Congo: it generously hosts more than half a million refugees; 700 thousand DRC refugees have fled abroad; and many Congolese are internally displaced. All need protection, support, and urgent solutions. https://t.co/nB3TulWy8o

50 years ago #MartinLutherKingJr was murdered. An anniversary to remind us that racism continues to kill. But also that eliminating racism is possible, if we fight against it. #FightRacism https://t.co/vAWEhFhIyF

Christian values are about compassion and sharing - not shutting doors and raising barriers but giving refuge to those fleeing persecution, discrimination, violence and war. #Easter2018 https://t.co/AZP94u1NiK
