Do I think governments should do more to ensure refugee and migrants' protection? Yes. But I do also deeply believe in whole of society approach. And that's why Im proud to work for an organisation that doing its part to help create a world where migration is safe.

@AndrewPGeddes In the DC govt buildings are called concrete chic. Definitely gives this a run for its money.

THREAD 🧵Did you know that Gaza is home to hundreds of artists, both men and women? It is literally the city with the highest number of artists relative to its population. In this thread, I will introduce you to dozens of them. These Gazans are unbreakable, sensitive, and amazing people - true embodiments of resilience.

I’ve been entirely glued 👀 to Gaza headlines so hadn’t kept up with the Italy-Albania deal @piccoli_lo provides a helpful summary of its significance here (and explains why it made headlines 🪽all the way to my dad’s newspaper @latimes 🌴)
Lorenzo Piccoli@piccoli_lo

I sat down for an interview with @EuronewsAlbania last week discussing some of the implications of the recent Memorandum of Understanding between Italy and Albania 🇮🇹🇦🇱 in the field of migration. youtube.com/watch?v=Fat7Zl…

Major improvements in Italy’s immigration administration: Windows have been fixed so that no pigeons can fly in. A guard triaged the 200 person line. The bathrooms are open. #reportinglive from hour 3 at the #questura

I worked for a bit on @CityOfBoston efforts to end homelessness. You know what has found to be shockingly effective there & elsewhere in moving people to permanent housing: A LIST (of every single person in need) Call me crazy but could we get one of those for resettlement?
Jeff Crisp@JFCrisp

I still don't understand how UNHCR comes up with this figure! Why, for example, aren't the one million Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh included? (And don't tell me because they will soon be repatriating).

Do refugees make even temporary homes beautiful? Does it matter? What’s the impact if a refugee camp is… prettier? My article in @RefugeJournal explores the significance of everyday beauty in refugee's lives & its possible implications for policy. refuge.journals.yorku.ca/index.php/refu…
