AGENDA:
Assessing the Global Refugee Crises and the Safety of Refugees.
The global refugee crisis, marked by conflicts and environmental issues, faces challenges in international response due to funding gaps and political complexities. Anti-immigrant sentiments hinder refugee resettlement, necessitating enhanced collaboration, increased funding, and robust policies for a unified and effective approach. The international community must commit to humanitarian principles to ensure protection, support, and opportunities for refugees.
