Did you know that Albert Einstein was a refugee but also that he was stateless? Last year, at least 3,7m people worldwide were stateless, struggling to access services, jobs & an identity https://t.co/3zjlCNDbQx https://t.co/opcqMMxGT2

Beautiful smiles from these Syrian refugee kids. More than 50% of the world's refugees are children under 18. Their irrepressible spirit gives hope for a brighter future. We owe them peace. https://t.co/3zjlCNlArX https://t.co/DYoZEaTje5

@Sarita_Libre @CarlottaSami UNHCR prioritizes people for evacuation based on their vulnerability. How recently they arrived in detention makes no difference.

There are now nearly 7 million Syrian refugees, the largest refugee population in the world. This is Za'atari Camp in Jordan. What started as a few tents in the desert is now home to nearly 70,000 Syrian refugees. https://t.co/3zjlCNDbQx https://t.co/EgO5l4tGAf

The numbers are staggering. But behind the statistics are people. Each with a unique story, a unique journey, and a unique tragedy. They're mums, dads, sons, daughters, just like you + me. They didn't ask for their situation. We must not forget that. https://t.co/3zjlCNDbQx https://t.co/QeuIYwk5d8

Developing countries host 84% of the world's refugees. Why do those who have little, give the most? https://t.co/3zjlCNlArX https://t.co/OUABIV1kcG

A tragic milestone. A record never meant to be broken. A moment for pause. By the end of 2018, more than 70 million people had been forced to flee their homes. https://t.co/3zjlCNDbQx
