Shelter is a vital survival mechanism in times of crisis or displacement. It is also key to restoring personal security, self-sufficiency and dignity. We provide tents, distribute plastic sheeting and develop emergency strategies, tools and guidelines and rushing in emergency aid to those who need it most. On cold nights or hot days, our help can be the difference between life and death.

Good health is an essential requirement for refugees to be able to rebuild their lives. Yet years or decades of forced displacement can take a significant toll on an individual’s health and wellbeing. With your support, we will increase refugee access to primary and secondary healthcare, nutrition, mental health services, and water, sanitation and hygene.

UNHCR partners with governments and international organizations to ensure quality protective education for refugee children and young people everywhere. Together with your help, they can learn how to rebuild their lives.

Most forcibly displaced populations live in places where they have access to markets and services. Providing them with cash enables them to prioritize and fulfil their needs in a dignified manner. UNHCR uses cash transfers to provide protection, assistance and services to the most vulnerable, which allows them to meet their most pressing needs
