53,000 refugees. 650 companies. One huge positive ripple effect for local economies in Mexico. This is how one #RefugeeForum pledge helped refugees earn a living and give back to the communities that welcomed them.

From cabbage to peas & carrots, refugees and their Rwandan neighbors in Mushishito marshland @Nyamagabe are growing crops to feed their families and earn income to meet basic needs. Thanks to 🇩🇰 Denmark for supporting self-reliance for refugees & their hosts.

The 2025 UNHCR Refugee Education Report offers the most detailed global snapshot of refugee enrolment yet, showing modest gains in access and gender parity. But progress is at risk without stronger investment, partnerships, and data. #RefugeeEducation #UNHCR

Every child deserves a chance to learn. But in many places, refugee children face even greater barriers to education than their peers. The gap is widening. It’s time to close it. ℹ️ unhcr.org/media/unhcr-ed…

🐛 Insect farming – innovation for impact! With support from 🇩🇰 Denmark & in collaboration with @WorldBank, we’re turning food waste into opportunity—creating #Jobs, boosting #Nutrition & advancing the #CircularEconomy in refugee-hosting areas. 🎧With @LinekAstrom from @UNHCR
World Bank Group Climate and Environment@WBG_ClimateEnv

In development, there are no silver bullets—but insect farming comes close. 🐛It creates jobs, cuts food waste, boosts protein intake, and produces natural fertilizer—all at once. 🎧 Listen to our latest podcast to find out how: wrld.bg/na2Y50WmIxW

Becoming a refugee is not a choice. Anyone can become a refugee. Refugees seek self-reliance and opportunities to contribute productively to the economies of their host communities. On #WorldRefugeeDay and always, let's support refugees like Said in building their businesses.

Insect farming: weird, wild and… a game-changer? It turns bugs into protein to feed animals, fertilize crops & support small farms, helping displaced people grow food, earn income & rebuild. Donate to UNHCR to help families facing hunger thrive.

This #IWD2025, we celebrate women like Nosizi—once stateless, now university graduate & UNHCR intern. When stateless women & girls have opportunities, they go on to uplift their communities. Let’s #EndStatelessness, break barriers & ensure they have the support needed to lead.

Both groups show portfolio at risk rates as low as 3%, and FSP branches in settlements are achieving sustainability at the same pace as those in other areas. Let’s prepare FSPs to be ‘refugee-ready’ by investing in market research and supporting initial operational costs.
