The people of Moldova are the 2024 UNHCR Nansen Refugee Award Honourable Mention

Description

There is no greater testament to the strength of the human spirit than the collective actions of a nation in the face of overwhelming crisis. After a massive escalation of war in Ukraine since February 2022, forcing millions of people to flee across borders in search of safety, the people of the Republic of Moldova stepped forward with open hearts and homes. In a country of just 2.5 million, over one million Ukrainian refugees found safety, with 124,000 still hosted in the country. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information for media: If you would like to use this video to communicate refugee stories or require B-Roll, transcripts, stills or much more information, please visit our media page: https://media.unhcr.org UNHCR, the United Nations Refugee Agency, works to protect and assist those fleeing war and persecution.
