This World Refugee Day on June 20 we stand together with refugees and hear their incredible stories of strength and resilience. UNHCR's new Global Trends report reveals that every second refugee is a child. Talar was in high school when the war broke out in Syria. Her family lived amid conflict for years before being resettled in Australia with help from UNHCR. Now safe in Sydney, Talar is following her dreams.
Two thirds of refugees in Gambella’s refugee camps are children. UNHCR’s Mmone Moletsane has seen firsthand the effects of war on unaccompanied and separated children. But she has also seen their incredible will to survive.
