“The events in Gaza are taking place against a backdrop of 75 years of displacement. 75 years of failure to find a just and lasting solution to the plight of Palestine Refugees,” @UNLazzarini. Powerful words on the devastating reality in Gaza.
Philippe Lazzarini@UNLazzarini

I arrived at the Global Refugee Forum straight from #Gaza & I have to say, it is a living hell. People of Gaza are running out of time & options as they face bombardment, deprivation & disease in an ever-ever-shrinking space. My full remarks 👇 #GRF2023 unrwa.org/newsroom/offic…

“Every refugee is a symptom of our collective failure to ensure peace and security. Refugee situations don’t have to turn into crises if we work together to address and manage them.” My @guardian op-ed ahead of this week’s Global Refugee Forum. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Volker Türk@volker_turk·
Appalled by horrendous events of past 48hrs in #Gaza. Killings of so many in schools-turned-shelters, amid fleeing of hundreds from Al-Shifa Hospital & ongoing displacement in southern Gaza, wholly inconsistent with protection of civilians required under international law.

UPDATE: constant horrors, another @UNRWA school bombarded several times in the north of #Gaza sheltering more than 4,000 people. Dozens reported killed including children. Second time in less than 24 hours schools are not spared. ENOUGH, these horrors must stop

We are profoundly saddened by this tragedy. The preventable death of an asylum seeker underscores the pressing need for action by all levels of government to prevent further risks, especially as winter temperatures set in.

#NEW: Peel region officials are calling on the federal government for assistance after an asylum seeker died this week sleeping in a tent outside a former shelter in Mississauga. "That blood is on our hands if we dont step up and help." toronto.citynews.ca/2023/11/16/man…

"The solution to this situation is the end of the occupation, and full respect for the right to self-determination for Palestinians. As I have said time and again, for the violence to end, the occupation needs to end," @volker_turk. 🔗 Full statement: bit.ly/47o7enC

#Israel/#OPT: “It is clear that status quo is untenable & we must do all we can to alleviate suffering of civilians. Member States with influence need to work harder than ever to bring the parties to a ceasefire, without further delay” – @volker_turk ow.ly/TpkX50Q6lBg

For 1 month, people across📍#GazaStrip have been denied aid, killed & bombed out of their homes. Daily struggles to find bread & water. Blackouts cut people off from loved ones & the rest of the world. This is forced displacement & humanitarian tragedy of colossal proportions.

The number of people forced to flee their homes has increased every year over the past decade — with the impacts of forced displacement seen globally and in Canada. Now more than ever, upholding the right to seek asylum is crucial. Here are the latest asylum stats in Canada. ⤵️

It was wonderful to meet you @BravoDavenport! Your insights and role as a Toronto city councillor are crucial to finding meaningful solutions for an urgent shelter crisis.
Alejandra Bravo@BravoDavenport

Today, I met with @JamousRema, UNHCR’s Representative in Canada, on behalf of @MayorOliviaChow. We spoke about growing global displacement and the refuge shelter + housing crisis in cities across North America. I look forward to ongoing collaboration with @UNHCRCanada.

Forced displacement in the Americas is at a record high. Great to see @HonAhmedHussen @CanadaDev @CanadaColombia 🇨🇦 at the Colombia-Venezuela border, where UNHCR continues to provide protection and assistance to those forced to flee and the communities that welcome them.
Ahmed Hussen@HonAhmedHussen

Wrapped up an eye-opening field visit to communities along the Colombian-Venezuela border. This gave me a firsthand perspective on the complex challenges faced by migrants in the region. It's vital to understand their lived realities and find solutions together. 🇨🇴🇻🇪
