Held every year around World Refugee Day, 20 June, Refugee Week is a UK-wide festival that celebrates the contributions, creativity and resilience of refugees and people seeking sanctuary.
Refugee Week enables people from different backgrounds to connect beyond labels, as well as encouraging understanding of why people are displaced and the challenges faced when seeking safety.
About UK for UNHCR
UK for UNHCR is the UN Refugee Agency’s national charity partner for the UK. We help refugees by advocating for their protection and raising funds that help UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, deliver humanitarian relief to displaced families across the globe.
Thanks to our UK supporters, UNHCR teams can deliver humanitarian relief to families left with no one else to turn to. From rushing lifesaving aid to civilians fleeing the frontlines of conflict, to ongoing care, such as education and healthcare, for families whose lives may remain in limbo for years.
