Humanitarians surely appreciate the support and solidarity expressed by so many on Monday’s #WorldHumanitarianDay — but we would appreciate even more real efforts to end conflicts, address root causes of crises, increase aid, pursue #SDGs. That would make our work unnecessary.

He didn’t know anyone. He didn’t know the country. He didn’t know the language. Then, he found his team and his people. Now he’s competing at #Paris2024. This is Sayed Amir Hossein Hosseini Pour. This is the Refugee Paralympic Games Team.

Sport has the unique ability to heal, unite and foster solidarity. For refugees, sport is more than a game. 🙏🏼 to the European Fair Play Movement for awarding UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency with the Fair Play for Peace Award for our efforts to bring hope and opportunity to refugees through sport.

As we leave behind a summer of sports filled with #Paris2024 excitement, Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh have a message for the world. You don't need much to play and shine on the field. Sport has the power to bring us all together ✨
