High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is a global organization dedicated to protecting and assisting refugees—people forced to flee their homes due to conflict, persecution, or disasters. Its mission is to ensure their safety, provide basic needs like shelter and food, and help them rebuild their lives, often through legal support and resettlement efforts. UNHCR works with governments and partners worldwide to uphold the rights of refugees and find durable solutions, such as returning home safely or integrating into new communities.
