World Refugee Day 2019 Ukraine
UNHCRUkraine
Description
The world is currently witnessing the highest levels of forced displacement. An unprecedented 68.5 million people around the world have been forced from home. Every minute 20 people leave everything behind to escape war, persecution or terror. On World Refugee Day, held every year on 20 June 20th, we commemorate the strength, courage and perseverance of millions of refugees; it is a key moment for the public to show support for families forced to flee. This year, we ask you to take part in the campaign #StepWithRefugees This campaign encourages people to support refugees by championing individual acts of solidarity. These acts, when taken together, acknowledge the resilience and strength of refugees. Pablo Mateu, UNHCR Representative in Ukraine
