Once more we ask Australian authorities to secure solutions for all refugees+asylum seekers who were forcibly transferred to Papua New Guinea & Nauru. We ask them also to permanently settle those refugees already transferred to Australia on medical or other grounds. https://t.co/33jKtz9SV6

This refugee baby was born three weeks ago in a detention center in Libya. He was evacuated to Italy yesterday with his mother. He is safe, now. Life can prevail over war, exploitation and abuse. https://t.co/ypDymJNM2Y

In Dadaab, some refugees choose to return to Somalia but many others wait for security to improve. Donor support continues to be critical for their survival. https://t.co/v8lkM90FSW
