Since the exodus from #Myanmar in 2017, almost 86 % of total #Rohingya refugees registered in Asia are hosted in Bangladesh—more than any other country. The world needs to recognize + support the generosity of host countries + their people who stand #withrefugees 🙏 https://t.co/8iGJGagp5d

52% of the total #Rohingya refugees from #Myanmar registered in Bangladesh are children 🧒🏽 That’s almost 450,000 young refugees in need of formal education 📚 We must do better for these children 🙏 https://t.co/UUOxHmo9NX

Countries like Bangladesh, which hosts 86 % of 1 million #Rohingya refugees from #Myanmar registered in Asia, need international support in addition to their national #COVID19 #vaccine plans. No one is safe until we are all safe🙏 https://t.co/I4V69dXeH1

In 2020, around 63% of #Rohingya refugees from #Myanmar rescued at sea were women + children. With an uncertain future in crowded camps, they are at high risk of sexual + gender-based violence. Many undertake dangerous boat journeys to reunite with family or in search of safety https://t.co/IOvSqcaA1P

Despite a successful film career in Uzbekistan, Ali Choriev longed for the ultimate recognition--citizenship. After 20 years of #statelessness, he received citizenship in 2017, enabling him to travel internationally + vote. Now, he hopes to give back. https://t.co/diYDkOLPKs
