Your donation is 100% secure Right now, over 11.6 million displaced people are on the verge of losing the last lifeline they have. These are not just numbers – they are families sleeping without shelter, children forced out of school, and parents unable to find medicine for their sick child.
Funding cuts are gravely affecting shelter, healthcare, wash and other vital services in Lebanon, Bangladesh, Yemen, Syria and Sudan.
We must act now. Please support those who need you most.
Syria – Effect on the scale, reach and sustainability of support
As of 31 May 2026, an estimated 1.67 million Syrians have returned from neighbouring countries, alongside approximately 1.92 million internally displaced returnees.
Returnees now face severe challenges with housing destruction, limited access to services and livelihoods, documentation and security challenges, and much more.
UNHCR continues to support informed, voluntary, and dignified returns, while addressing protection risks and reintegration challenges. But funding constraints continue to limit the scale, reach and sustainability of assistance.
Sudan – The world’s largest displacement crisis
12 million are displaced, including more than 4.2 million refugees across the region. Access to primary healthcare, mental health services, and essential medical aid have been severely disrupted for 380,000 people.
Lebanon – Key programmes discontinued or scaled
More than 1.5 million crisis affected people, including internally displaced Lebanese and refugees live in Lebanon. Severe funding cuts have meant reduced aid to those in need, including over 83,000 refugees who have lost shelter-related financial aid, with the cash for shelter programme drastically cut by 90%, going from reaching 95,000 to 11,000 people.
UNHCR has also been forced to discontinue its only cash component of the UNHCR-WFP joint cash programme to 347,000 individuals.
Bangladesh – An already overstretched response under threat
This has led to about 1 million Rohingya refugees facing a severe health crisis, as they continue to be fully dependant on aid for food, shelter, healthcare, education and safety.
Yemen – Basic services collapse across the country
5.2 million people are now displaced, and more than half the country’s population requires humanitarian assistance. 2.2 million children under the age of 5 are acutely malnourished.
This crisis is real.
Your compassion can be a lifeline for those in the greatest need.
