International Women's Day might be over, but UNHCR will continue to work to support refugees. These inspiring women have not let being forced to leave home stop them. They are studying essential skills to help rebuild their communities and futures. https://t.co/zWqfnQCeyB

When Lueth settled in Australia, she struggled at school, suffering from anxiety and panic attacks after her experiences fleeing conflict. Now she's tutoring refugee students to help them work through their own trauma and come out of their shell. https://t.co/zvdzqMAs7j

We all have a story to share and @AlFadak's is particularly special, showing the power of a warm welcome. It was so great to see her share her story on @Breakfaston1 yesterday morning with our friends in New Zealand. Check out her interview here: https://t.co/MFdsSAdgVJ

We're standing with women and girls around the world. Today we held an afternoon tea to celebrate #InternationalWomensDay. We stand with women and girls globally and pledge to work to support and protect refugee women and children as they flee violence. #EachForEqual #IWD2020 https://t.co/0zk6eK47Si

This figure is horrifying enough, but the risk of sexual violence against women & girls caught in conflict situations is much greater, and greater still on their dangerous journeys to safety. UNHCR is working to reduce the risks of sexual violence and support survivors. #IWD2020 https://t.co/EybVpc9BJo

Girls are 2.5 times more likely to be out of school in conflict-affected countries than their counterparts in conflict-free countries, and are the first to miss out when there is limited space. #IWD2020 #EachForEqual SOURCE: UNESCO 2015 https://t.co/8UShVNZmMc

She is strong. She has value. She makes an impact. She is #EachForEqual. This #InternationalWomensDay we celebrate all women, but especially those who are refugees, displaced and stateless. UNHCR will continue to support and protect women and girls around the world. #IWD2020 https://t.co/wxcJImC2oK

At @UNrefugees, every day is #IWD2020 – it’s business as usual for us with four out of every five refugees being women and children. When we empower refugee women, we empower communities. Every day we see their strength and resilience shine through. #EachforEqual https://t.co/TUeDLfObBv
