Hoping to find inspiration to engage corporates in #HongKong to work with @justicecentrehk as a corporate change maker & engage in the Global Refugee Forum in Dec 19 #UNHCRNGOs #BeyondFundraising #RefugeeForum
“Focus on people & their need of accessing rights” take a rights based approach & whole of society approach @CarolinaGottar5 of @APRRN_ at the #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
A lot of food for thought 2018 @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs consultations. Disappointed that no discussion of #China #EastAsia in any of the sessions. @justicecentrehk we have our work cut out for 2019 particularly given #HongKong used as a model of success when UNHCR exit RSD.
It’s a wrap! @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs finished for this year and The Boy at the Back of the Class has been safely delivered to @RefugeesChief Enjoy reading! @OnjaliRauf is the inspiring writer of this fabulous book.
#SouthKorea resisting arrival of Yemeni asylum seekers https://p.dw.com/p/30IWq?tw via @dwnews Why are we not talking about East Asia in this Consultation? The objection appears to be because the refugees are #Muslim. This will have an impact on #HongKong @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs
I’m disappointed that no discussion of east Asia in today’s session with Bureau for Asia and the Pacific. @justicecentrehk we need to do more to get East Asia on the agenda next year. @UNHCRPartners #unhcrngos
.@RefugeesChief why is China absent from any of the discussions taking place this morning? China being courted as a donor but not as responsibility sharing partner? China has a crucial role to play in the power vacuum from USA exiting. #UNHCRNGOS @UNHCRPartners @justicecentrehk
Q to @RefugeesChief- How many refugees waiting for resettlement? The data not been released
In #HongKong no resettlement for over 18months-refugees in limbo. No option to stay as no legal status granted. 0.5% recognition rate- lowest in developed world @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOS
Excellent question from @CairoRefugees - Why do we find women’s only services run by men? How is UNHCR going to put refugees first in reality? @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs
68.5million refugees, IDPs & migrants (25.4 million refugees). Mostly Myanmar, South Sudan, Somalia, Syria. How many are resettled to East Asia- Japan, China, S.Korea? Where is the responsibility sharing in East Asia? @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs @RefugeesChief @justicecentrehk
The abuse and neglect of #refugees in #Calais and #Dunkirk continues to escalate with little support given to volunteer led efforts like @DunkirkRefugees on the ground. If we are putting people first then why is #UNHCRNGOs refusing to talk about this?@UNHCRPartners
‘Putting People First’ means you believe in the skills & capacities of refugees- you should and must invest in refugee leadership. @justicecentrehk @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs
The relationship between UNHCHR and NGOs is a partnership. 600 participants from 300 NGOs-150 National NGOs. 20 refugees amongst us today. #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs
‘Putting People First’ theme of the @UNHCRPartners #UNHCRNGOs consultations. Flying the banner of #HongKong on behalf of @justicecentrehk
Q from @CairoRefugees:UNHCR removed Refugee staff from training session in Cairo. Why? When will culture change? #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
China's engagement under #onebeltoneroad includes growing role in response to global refugee crisis but what about #HongKong? #UNHCRNGOs
#HongKong:politician's child with disability told by critics karma for him helping ‘South Asian dogs' (Refugees)
#UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
Fillipo Grandi: "mixed flows of refugees & migrants" "Yemen" "Crisis in Ukraine" "CAR" all on our radar #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
@NWadefadost: congratulations to #UNHCRNGOs for hosting the first session on #WomenGirls in the history of the consultations @UNHCRPartners
@Oxfam:Programme of action will be a mirror to the New York Declaration. A lot of work left to do. #WomenGirls #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
Kpaka "I will be the voice of the voiceless" Most powerful voices are from the experts of their own experience. #WomenGirls #UNHCRNGOs
@Adela_Kamara even though you're in #HongKong your tweets are with me in Geneva. Thank you for supporting. #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
@MarcyHersh: Lack of access to sexual & reproductive health care is the main killer of girls & women #WomenGirls #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
#WomenGirls session starting-looking forward to hearing how the Global Compact is going to work for refugee women and girls #UNHCRNGOs
@justicecentrehk has track record & solid experience working with private sector for last 10years #GrandBargain #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
World Bank: "Get to know how we think, how we speak,our projects before you pitch a project to us" #GrandBargain #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
DHL's leadership with refugees because global events affects them & their staff. They partner with UN & INGOs #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
"Local actors are 1st point of contact for accessing asylum in a dignified & humane manner" Crucial to policy development. #UNHCRNGOs
@WorldBank engaging in this process through partnership @justicecentrehk drafted #HongKong mapping for them #UNHCRNGOs @UNHCRPartners
There is not enough voices from refugees in the Global Compact & CRFF. Move away from fear of talking about #Asia in negotiations #UNHCRNGOs
