26 people today left the severely overcrowded GDF to move to urban areas. UNHCR is helping them settle in to life in Tripoli with cash assistance to help towards accommodation, food and basic living needs, as well as blankets, winter clothes and other relief items https://t.co/0CMjNZMji9

Thank you @Pontifex ? Vatican agrees to host 33 asylum-seekers currently in Lesvos, Greece. A great display of solidarity #WithRefugees. Puts to shame arguments about 'not having enough space' to take in more refugees https://t.co/t89899WLwt

Climate change forces 20 million people to flee each year, says @Oxfam This is why arguments about the 'cost' of green energy are so frustrating. We're already paying the price every day, but people in the developing world are bearing greatest burden https://t.co/eyfzOSW3wd

In Iran, music is helping blind Afghan refugee Maryam dream, one note at a time. People with disabilities forced to flee face additional challenges. Important we leave no one behind+empower people with disabilities to fully participate in society #IDPD https://t.co/8izGUIOIiX

The Mediterranean Sea is one of the most dangerous sea crossings in the world, and things are getting worse. So far this year, one person has died on the central Mediterranean for every 15 that have reached Italian shores. https://t.co/zDWzkxNj8y

The point of no return on climate change is not on the horizon. It is here, it is now. Arguing over the trimmings is not enough, we need fundamental policy changes now. Together we can act but soon it will be out of our grasp. https://t.co/rZKUa2GdDX https://t.co/30AMaqKNGf

Good news! Any support to Libyan search and rescue efforts should be conditional on an end to the automatic and arbitrary detention of people in Libya after they have been rescued/intercepted at sea by the Libya Coast Guard https://t.co/bFDLsToPg9

Great initiative from @CPFC. Bravo. Shouldn’t be needed in the first place though. Next Government surely have to make reducing homelessness a top priority. As one of the wealthiest nations in the world, unacceptable to see so many people forced to sleep on the streets https://t.co/uCGurqCnVg
