"While every refugee's story is different and their anguish personal, they all share a common thread of uncommon courage – the courage not only to survive, but to persevere and rebuild their shattered lives." – United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees António Guterres
The International Rescue Committee joins the U.N. and the world in paying tribute to the remarkable determination and resilience of tens of millions of refugees uprooted by war and violence.
This mosaic is made up of more than 300 portraits of courageous refugees the IRC has had the privilege to assist in 25 countries around the world and in cities across the United States. |
