I told the #SecurityCouncil today that saving people’s lives cannot wait for political solutions — but unless conflicts are solved (with more unity and more determination) millions of people will continue to be exposed to uncertainty and fear, and forced displacement will grow. https://t.co/tdgS6p0xfZ

Conflict, climate change, COVID19: the challenges facing refugees, displaced people and their hosts are huge. UNHCR seeks 9 billion $ for its work in 2022. I am grateful to donors for pledging more than one billion $ today - this will be crucial to build sustainable responses. https://t.co/GoJa1X1OKb

“Let us stop ignoring reality, stop constantly shifting responsibility, stop passing off the issue of migration to others, as if it mattered to no one and was only a pointless burden to be shouldered by somebody else!” (Pope Francis @Pontifex speaking in #Lesvos today,) https://t.co/FJYYq3vemj

Thank you Makhtar @Diop_IFC — I am happy to see the @IFC_org and UNHCR pioneer some innovative approaches with the private sector to create opportunities for refugees, displaced people, returnees and communities hosting them. I look forward to further expanding our partnership! https://t.co/gcSaGER94H

The President of @the_IDB Mauricio Claver-Carone and I (on behalf of UNHCR) signed today an important memorandum of understanding. Thanks to this, we will further strengthen our excellent cooperation in Latin American and the Caribbean countries affected by forced displacement. https://t.co/2EUPJNu4zS

UNHCR’s partnership with the @WorldBank has been a game changer in how we support refugee responses. Thank you @DavidMalpassWBG and @AxelVT_WB for being such good and supportive allies. https://t.co/4tpsT5gFsI

Thanks to President @DrGiammattei and the people of Guatemala for their hospitality during my visit. Everywhere I have seen good efforts to respond effectively to refugee and migratory pressures — UNHCR has strengthened its presence and will continue to support the government. https://t.co/mz6Jkkj7k3

Gracias al presidente @DrGiammattei y al pueblo de Guatemala por su hospitalidad durante mi visita. He visto buenos esfuerzos para responder de manera efectiva a los movimientos de refugiados y migrantes; el ACNUR ha fortalecido su presencia y continuará apoyando al gobierno. https://t.co/qKCMb46SOm

On #WorldAIDSDay we remember that forcibly displaced people - and their host communities - are vulnerable and must be given equal access to health services, especially those living with #HIV. Inclusion is the best protection. Inequality exposes us all. @UNAIDS @Winnie_Byanyima https://t.co/3Q0Vwk5P68

La iniciativa MIRPS tiene 4 años y se ha convertido en una importante plataforma para promover protección y buscar soluciones para las personas desplazadas en Centroamérica y México. Gracias al actual presidente @PedroBroloGT por acoger los participantes en la hermosa Antigua. https://t.co/GhUppFL0Ct
