For a world where refugees are welcomed
World Refugee Day 2024
In the face of the current global challenges, including a record high number of forcibly displaced people and widespread conflict, political instability, and economic upheaval, it is crucial that we stand in solidarity with refugees. Now more than ever, they need our support and unity. Solidarity begins with keeping our doors open and fostering a world where refugees are genuinely welcomed. It involves actively seeking and implementing solutions to address their plight. This includes removing barriers that prevent their full integration into social, economic, and political spheres and working towards ending the conflicts that force them to flee their homes.
Let us join hands in solidarity with refugees, working together to create a world where compassion, understanding, and support prevail. Together, we can build a brighter future for all. Let us together showcase the power of unity and bring hope and change to refugees in need of assistance.

We ensure that as many funds as possible are redirected to refugees, stateless persons and asylum-seekers. 85 per cent of all funds raised go directly to field operations. 7 per cent is allocated for global programmes, helping refugees, internally displaced people, asylum seekers and stateless people under the UNHCR mandate around the world, and 8 per cent is for headquarters administration.
UNHCR staff work as closely as possible with and for people forced to flee, with 90 per cent of our workforce based in field locations. For further details on UNHCR's budget, read our Global Report.
