📷A Moment in Time📷 Why we love this picture? Just a glimpse of life inside the camp, where rows of bamboo & tarpaulin shelters packed tightly. In the narrow walkways between them, families make the most of every ray of sunlight to dry clothes & go about their daily lives.

Rohingya refugees dream of returning home, but only when it is safe and with full citizenship rights. Ongoing conflicts in Myanmar means that time has not yet come.

Most of the time, we post about the Rohingya refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar. Today, in honour of #WorldCitiesDay, we give an ode to the capital of Bangladesh, the country that so generously opened its doors to the Rohingya. Chaotic, colourful and unique: WE 💙 DHAKA.

Misinformation and hate speech targeting refugees have severe consequences on their safety, well-being and protection.​ As we mark Global Media and #InformationLiteracy Week, a reminder that we all have a responsibility to say #NoToHate.

Ensuring access to legal protection services for refugees is one of UNHCR’s core mandates. Siraj, a paralegal volunteer, works tirelessly to help his #Rohingya community get the legal support they need. ⚖️💙

📷A Moment in Time📷 Why we love this picture? Refugee children often draw white cars 📷. When asked why, one said, ‘That’s a UN car, it’s what we always see.’ A simple drawing 📷 that says so much about how differently people grow up.

🌟A Moment in Time 📷 Why we love this picture? Chinlone is perhaps one of the world’s most exciting sports, and Rohingya youth become real acrobats while playing. If you manage to snap a picture at the right time, the result can be spectacular! 👇 📷 Tayyib Al Hafiz
